Re: [xmonad] Issue 478 in xmonad: Restart could be made more robust

Comment #1 on issue 478 by allber...@gmail.com: Restart could be made more robust http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=478 I'm not sure what you're concerned about leaking, as most of the information passed on other than the layout detail is available via properties in the X server. Which is where this should be passed anyway; I'd probably attach an XMONAD_LAYOUT property to each window with its state information. This also avoids the potential for race conditions when the window state changes during the restart sequence.
