Very nice work!

roma:
> XMonad.Layout.Monitor is module for managing 'monitor' windows. Monitor
> windows are like dock windows, but they are placed above other windows.
> For example, see screenshot[1]. 
> 'Monitor' is layout modifier which shows monitor window above the tiled
> windows of current layout.
> Its features are:
> - works with unmanaged windows ( => it's trivial to get monitor on all
>   workspaces, plus monitor never gets focus)
> - toggling visibility with a keybinding
> - it's possible to have several monitors and toggle them independently
>   (using nested modifiers)
> 
> Due to stacking algorithm of xmonad, it isn't currently possible to show
> monitor above floating windows.
> 
> For details, please see the docs. Comments are welcome.
