At least in what you are showing you are using only a side-effect of
'setq windows' assignment. Is that really needed? Also 'cat' is
actually a "dead cat" as "$(cat some_file)" and "$(<some_file)" will
have the same effect.

If you are using bash then 'sed' happens to be unessential too.
show_my_args () { while [ "$1" ]; do echo $1; shift; done }
eval list=$(sawfish-client -e \
'(mapcar (lambda (win) (window-name win)) (managed-windows))')
show_my_args "${list[@]}"

For a some value of "better" ....
