xmonad-contrib 9a6494fae2 cleared up transience to better highlight how to use ManageHooks properly
The initial patch that extended the EDSL for writing ManageHook rules did not come with a good example on how to use it.  This patch ammends that. 'move' is an example of how to write a rule to resolve a Query (Maybe a) into something tangible.  'move'' is an example of how to write a rule isolating window managing code from the rest ofthe mess the EDSL creates.
