[xmonad] Termite does not work as scratchpad

[Brandon Allbery]

Can you show how you're configuring the scratchpad?

In general, terminals --- especially the VTE-based ones --- have extra
"gotchas" as described at
https://wiki.haskell.org/Xmonad/General_xmonad.hs_config_tips#Terminal_emulator_factories
. It takes some care to both get the scratchpad to behave *and* not have
every terminal be thought a scratchpad.
