Oh.  That's not behaving as a quote; it's behaving as a "prime" (following
mathematical conventions).  Within an identifier (that is, not as the first
character) single quotes are part of the identifier.  So you can have names
like

    doSideFloat'
    a'b'c
    y''' (that's 3 primes)

Yes, it's defined in XMonad.Hooks.ManageHelpers.

Unless you have previous experience with an ML-family functional language,
yes.
