However, with the layouts I use, those windows get scaled to fill have of the screen, left to the application. That is annoying , in particular since the control buttons (OK Cancel ) do not appear , so I have to force quit that window.
1. You can manually float / resize a window by using the mouseBindings, or add the FloatKeys contrib to do it by keyboard. 2. xprop the window -- if you can find some uniquely identifying information, you can turn it into a ManageHook. 3. xmonad does have a heuristic for when to automatically float a window: those that set a fixed size (min == max) or that set WM_TRANSIENT_FOR. Firefox doesn't do either in this case.
