Woops, accidentally sent before finishing my last line. "Probably not the most elegant solution, but it compiles and works great!"

Thanks! A lot of this XMonad configuration is still a mystery to me, and any extra tips to understanding it would be appreciated!

I see. That solved that problem, but now I get an error saying:

*sigh* I tripped over the same problem I was trying to avoid in a different form... this will be harder to do than I'd hoped.  (Forgot that it's already in a pure context; have to rearrange the whole thing to compensate)

The viewHidden function now  looks like

viewHidden :: WorkspaceId -> X ()
viewHidden w = do
  ws <- gets windowset
  when (w `notElem` (map (W.tag . W.workspace) $ W.current ws : W.visible ws))
       (windows $ W.view w)

and the list comprehension defining the workspace switching keys has now been refactored into:

   [((m .|. modm,k),f i)
   | (i, k) <- zip (XMonad.workspaces conf) [xK_1 .. xK_9]
   , (f, m) <- [(viewHidden,0), (windows . W.shift,shiftMask)]
   ]
