| I haven't used this for a while, and there might be more bulletproof
| ways to do this, but I used to run xmonad inside xmonad (with
| different modkeys) using this shell script (or rather, something like
| it - I've thrown out some vestigal stuff).

Oh good stuff!  It actually works.  Thanks.

On the original xterm I get some "Could not init font path element" errors, plus
"XLib: extension "XINERAMA" missing"

but they don't seem to stop the xnest window displaying and xmonad functioning inside it.

Ok, so I'm off home base, thanks.

Simon
