In this version I addressed further comments by Paul Fertser, plus implemented the remote/local clients identification scheme that I was talking about: it is in XMonad.Util.RemoteWindows module with documentation and all.

I split the work into two logical changes, for easier review and so that the first patch won't depend on the second.

Just a friendly ping on this one. :) Thanks, Anton

Brandon/Paul - ok to submit? I haven't reviewed this code, but I'll take your words on it. On Tue, Sep 23, 2014 at 10:44 AM, Anton Vorontsov wrote:

On some level I kinda dislike the whole idea, but (a) I can certainly see its usefulness, and (b) as long as users are aware of the caveats involved (cut and paste was mentioned; also note that anything that is holding open a network connection will probably catch an RST on resume if suspended for too long) it's up to them whether to use it or not. -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allbery.b@gmail.com ballbery@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net

Well, okay, there are plenty of modules in contrib that I would never use (and for that matter, several things in core I disable or ignore). As long as: 1. The code is clean. 2. It won't segfault. 3. It's gotchas are well-documented. Then I'm happy with it. From a quick glance, it appears so. The advice in $usage to do `layoutHook def ||| stoppable (layoutHook def)` (thereby doubling your list of layouts?) seems a bit weird, but maybe I'm misunderstanding it. Applied.

While it might be nice to use one of the layout toggles, most of those are painful enough that even I go to some lengths to avoid them.

Ah, no I haven't. HList, I see. I'll have to take a look at some point. On Sat, Sep 27, 2014 at 7:03 AM, Brandon Allbery wrote:
