Some, but not others. Your xkb mod would not be a good one to start
with, though it sounds pretty cool. My first contrib was SwapWorkspaces,
which is ridiculously simple.

Your gimme.jl is a slight mod of my, I think, third contrib,
WindowBringer (which arossato ported to WindowPrompt, or
XMonad.Prompt.Window if you're on darcs). It'd probably be feasible to
figure out how to extend either, as appropriate.

So, it depends on where you are. For me, it took me from programming
Haskell in the small (in ghci, pretty much :) to programming Haskell in
the medium.
