What I'm still missing is: why doesn't xmonad get told the correct window size by xnest? The -geom thing tells xnest how big a window it should throw up, but regardless of its window size it should report it faithfully to xmonad.
Similarly on resizing, which comprehensively does not work -- ie resizing the xnest window, making it smaller, is not reflected in the xmonad layout. Instead xnest just truncates even more of it.

Xnest is just not very nice in this respect -- it chooses a geometry at start up and sticks with it. It continues to report the same geometry to clients, no matter how you resize the containing Xnest window. Cheers, Spencer Janssen
