Changes include:
- compatibility with base-4 or 3 (base-2 untested) by using
extensible-exceptions. This adds an additional dependency for users of
ghc<6.10)
- list all dependencies again when -ftesting (change in Cabal-1.8.0.2)
- remove unnecessary imports
- suppress -fwarn-unused-do-bind, with appropriate Cabal-1.8 workaround,

* Read is no longer a superclass of Layout
* All of the core layouts have moved to the new Layouts.hs module
* Select has been replaced by the new statically typed Choose combinator,
which is heavily based on David Roundy's NewSelect proposal for
XMonadContrib. Consequently:
- Rather than a list of choosable layouts, we use the ||| combinator to
combine several layouts into a single switchable layout
- We've lost the capability to JumpToLayout and PrevLayout. Both can be
added with some effort
I realize this is a big change, but the name 'findIndex' was confusing for me, since I expected it to return some sort of integer. What it actually does, of course, is return a workspace tag, which might be more general than an index.
Of course, this change breaks several contrib modules; I'll submit a patch to make the change there as well.
I want to reuse Properties' Arbitrary instance (as well as the T and
NonNegative types) in an upcoming set of SwapWorkspaces QC props.
`module Main where import Main` doesn't work too well. :)
If this patch is accepted, the darcs 'test' pref should be modified to
"-itests tests/Main.hs".
First, if float is called with window which is on a hidden workspace,
then the window will remain on that hidden workspace.
Now the focus should change more as expected:
float w = (view current) . (shiftWin ws w)
where
current is the current screen/workspace
shiftWin ws w is: - view the workspace w is on
- set focus on w
- shift ws
- set focus back to window it was on that workspace
unless w was focused
shiftWin was add to StackSet.hs
