You don't want to store a StackSet; just store the dzen window (`ask' in the
manageHook) in ExtensibleState:  this *does* work unless someone broke it
recently.  Then you can retrieve it in e.g. a keybinding and hide/show as
appropriate.  (I would arrange for it not to reserve space/set struts, hide
it by default, and map it while the mod key is held; it should in any case
be doIgnore-d.)
