Could you build this?
No Managing native macOS window grouping across unrelated third-party apps requires deep macOS Accessibility APIs, private WindowServer APIs, and complex native Swift/Objective-C OS-level window management.
What it would actually take: Built in native Swift using macOS Accessibility APIs (AXUIElement) and low-level CoreGraphics/WindowServer event taps. The difficult part is accurately tracking, reparenting, and intercepting window focus, state restoration, and multi-monitor layouts across sandboxed third-party apps without destabilizing the system or triggering OS-level crashes.
