Is there some unobtrusive way to see window names?

I'm imagining something like the workspace name displaying that (I think) WindowMaker has: as you change to a workspace, its name appears in the centre and fairly quickly fades.

Have a look at XMonad.Layout.ShowWName

Ah, OK, that shows the workspace name. That's quite handy in itself. And yes, I guess something analogous to that for logHook would be possible. (Not sure I care that much now that I've remembered about windowPromptGoto.) [...]
