Description

I would like to be able to configure Gala to automatically tile windows, rather than opening them as floating and then tiling them manually.

When this option is enabled:
- A new window in an empty workspace should attempt to expand to fill the entire screen
- A new window in a workspace with 1 window open should fill the right half of the screen, while the existing window should fill the left half.
