[xmonad] Issue 484 in xmonad: Use XDG Base Directory Specification

Comment #11 on issue 484 by oliver.d... at gmail.com: Use XDG Base Directory  
Specification
https://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=484

I have written a patch for using an environment variable to configure the  
base-directory of xmonad. See  
http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/xmonad/2014-October/014339.html.

e.g. if you start xmonad with the environment-variable:
$ export XMONAD_WORKING_DIR_NAME=$XDG_DATA_HOME && xmonad
the directory in XDG_DATA_HOME will be used.

There is also a discussion about the XDB directory in the directory package.
https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/5966
https://github.com/haskell/directory/issues/6

IMHO we should wait for the result of the discussion in the directory  
package. Maybe there is nothing to do after that discussion for this issue.
