[xmonad] Stash and replace for workspace?

Hi folks,
I just realized that for some of my workflows, the following type of
behaviour would be useful. I have two xinerama screens, one I consider
the "primary screen" on which I do most of the work, while the other is
"secondary" and is used for stuff I like to have handy to look at. Now
assume that I am currently looking at workspace A on the primary screen,
while the secondary screen shows workspace B. Next I need to do some
work on workspace C, but I would like to keep what I did on WS A
visible. So I'd like to create a keybinding that shunts A off to my
secondary screen (replacing B) and brings up C on my primary screen
(replacing A).
Now here's the question: Is there a simple and elegant way to do this
with the functions available in XMonadContrib? If not, am I right in
assuming that I have to do some stackset surgery to achieve this? Any
pointers are appreciated.
Thanks,
Norbert
