If Spencer's Endo/FRef/Monoid idea is going into the release, though, I'd wait for that -- it'll make documenting the config *much* easier.
I lost this part - the Monoid one. Could you (or Spencer) articulate a just a little bit?
Spencer could better articulate it, obviously, but the idea is that the config will look something like this: main = xmonad $ defaultConfig <+> extend keys [((_,_), _)...] <+> set modMask mod4Mask <+> ... Here, 'keys' and 'modMask' aren't the record getters, but are Functional References [1] that wrap the getter/setter (since there is no succinct syntax to pass a record field setter). <+> is sugar for `mappend`, hence the Monoid bit (I may have the above snippet wrong). I'm not sure where the Endo bit comes in. Devin [1] http://twan.home.fmf.nl/blog/haskell/overloading-functional-references.detai...
