For large high resolution screens such a layout is nice -- but of course some of the old users will not like it, so I guess gschem will never change its layout. And indeed there may exist reasons why people like overlapping windows better, i.e. when working on a smartphone display or with multiple monitors where separate windows can live on separate screens.
