A problem xmonad solved by appending the arch to the binary name.

This has one disadvantage I can think of: for DEs that set $XDG
automatically, users will have to know about it in order to know where
to put their .xmonad.hs -- otherwise the file won't be detected.
Perhaps that's not worth worrying about.

It seems the only advantage is cleaning up the home directory.
