An example: windows would not be allowed to be moved and resized arbitrarily and the annoying pop-ups (e.g.. file-requesters, error messages) would not simply (and rudely!) cover other windows.
It's unfortunate, but window managers are not able to intercept popup dialogs, or applications such as Firefox that request to be raised to the top of the stacking order without user intervention.
