[xmonad] xmonad as stacking wm

Hello.

I'm looking for wm with randr support, which can manage screens (monitors)
independently. As I know, xmonad can this, but I hate tiling. So the 
question
is: is it possible to setup xmonad so, that it looked like a tiling wm?

I've already tried to to this, but I'm newbie in xmonad. As I understand 
there
are two way to do this: float layer and layout. But looks like it's 
impossible
to do layout things with float layer. For example, how to add window 
decoration
to float window? And with layout I can't understand how to move windows with
mouse. (With alt pressed).

Is is possible to find some such sample configs?

What could you say about bluetile? I've heard that it merged into 
xmonad, but
I haven't find it in darcs.
