I've thought about doing this a few times in the past but decided not
to because I generally expect folks who want very minimal systems with
tiling window managers like i3wm are going to want things very
customized exactly the way they like them (myself included). My
approach right now is just to install a minimal system with the net
installer and then run an ansible playbook[0] I have to setup my
laptop the way I like it along with my configs[1] and I'd be surprised
if others who use tiling window managers have a much different
approach.

That being said, if there are enough people interested in agreeing on
some sort of a baseline such that we have a nice LiveCD/USB image that
can be installed from, I'd be open to discussing and helping maintain
an i3wm spin.
