While I understand the point of "just being a wm" and not a de, I like
your idea. So I've set up a little startup hook which does exactly what
you wanted to do without touching the core source of XMonad.
Hope you like it. :)

And sorry Andreas, my previous mail was supposed to go to the whole
mailing list. ;)

[ThreeColMid - Swap slave window positions
Anders Engstrom <ankaan at gmail.com>**20090503195026
 Ignore-this: f2673e83386bc0e5d398d4e875537cc8
 This patch will swap the positions of the two slave windows and this will result in a more intuitive window order. When using focusDown beginning in the master pane we will move in the following graphical order 2->3->1->2->3 instead of 2->1->3->2->1. This is backwards from what is expected.

 The small drawback is that increasing from 2 to 3 windows (and therefore also columns) will behave in a less intuitive way. The window in the right column will jump to the left of the screen.

 I think that it is a good idea to make this change since I rely a lot on the window order but people using WindowNavigation may be of a different opinion.

 An alternative is to add an option to select in what way to behave, but that could be overkill... I leave it up to discussion and devs to decide.

 Ignore-this: 4378f4c6c4f383c9a35acb503409d865

 This patch will remove snapping against unmanaged windows, but instead calculate a new rectangle with all gaps (computed by ManageDocks) removed. This new rectangle is used to snap against. (Both the inside and outside of the rectangle.)

 This will remedy the issue of snapping against multiple layers of the same window, additionally there will be no snap-points between windows on the same side. So if you are running two dzen side by side with half the screen each. You will not automatically have a snap-point in the middle.

 Naturally, this patch will change which function is exported from ManageDocks.

[Prompt.hs rename deleteConsecutiveDuplicates
gwern0 at gmail.com**20081008205131
 That name is really unwieldy and long.

[Prompt.hs: have historyCompletion filter dupes
gwern0 at gmail.com**20081008204710
 Specifically, it calls deleteConsecutiveDuplicates on the end product. uniqSort reverses order in an unfortunate way, so we don't use that.
 The use-case is when a user has added the same input many times - as it stands, if the history records 30 'top's or whatever, the completion will show 30 'top' entries! This fixes that.

[Kill window without focusing it first
Joachim Breitner <mail at joachim-breitner.de>**20081005002533
 This patch requires the patch "add killWindow function" in xmonad.
 Before this patch, people would experience ?workspace flicker? when closing
 a window via EWMH that is not on the current workspace, for example when
 quitting pidgin via the panel icon.

[Merge emptyLayoutMod into redoLayout
Joachim Breitner <mail at joachim-breitner.de>**20081005190220
 This removes the emptyLayoutMod method from the LayoutModifier class, and
 change the Stack parameter to redoLayout to a Maybe Stack one. It also changes
 all affected code. This should should be a refactoring without any change in
 program behaviour.

 It adds a XPConfig option that, if enabled, hides the completion window
 until the user presses Tab once. Default behaviour is preserved.
 TODO: If Tab causes a unique completion, continue to hide the completion
 window.
