Below is a patch to X11-extras to allow reading/writing of the XWMHints struct. I would like to see this used to add UrgencyHint support to xmonad (I have a patch pending for that).

I went with a fairly simple serialization (rather than fancy Maybe or Bool records) because xmonad won't care about most of these values, and hence I felt it wasn't worth the effort to provide much more than bare metal.

Thoughts? (If you have any experience writing Haskell/C bindings, I'd apreciate your input. I'm new.)

Since we're coming up on a feature freeze, I'm going to wait until after 0.4 to apply this patch.

Agreed, since it needs some review (X11-extras stuff is extra tricky to get right).
