[xmonad] Extra keyboard

[Daniel Wagner]

Just in case the question was more specific than it needed to be, it's
possible the numeric keypad reports different keys than the "number keys"
at the top of your normal keyboard anyway. X distinguishes between xK_6 and
xK_KP_6. So if you don't normally use the keypad on your main keyboard,
this can be an option.
