Description

Is it possible to make windows smaller than some specific size automatically float? Just like the feature in Amethyst. If possible, I further wish to be able to configure the threshold size by the percentage of the screen's width and height.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Begin by locating the window-placement and floating behavior relevant to yabai, then confirm how screen dimensions and configurable thresholds should be represented. Done means qualifying small windows automatically float and both width and height percentage thresholds are configurable, with behavior verified on macOS.
