The reason why I don't use scratchpads is simple:
I don't know how to do it. I liked the scratchpad in ion3 and tried to
implement a scratchpad with xmonad several times, without success. If anybody
can tell me step by step for the given calendar example, I would give it another
try. But the raiseAndDo does what I want. So it would be just for fun and
learning haskell.

Something along the lines of http://lpaste.net/111558 should do it. Note that you can't use a geometry directly with this setup; it might be possible to revise it so that you can keep using a -geometry instead of doing it in the ManageHook, and you'll want to doublecheck the terminal.
