[xmonad] Make floating window stick to screen

[Jakob Schöttl]

Hello,

I would like to have a floating window that keep staying on a certain
xinerama screen rather than a certain workspace.

Is it possible to implement this? Can I create a key binding to toggle
'stick to screen'.

In case I have to create my own event hook impl, how can I react on
workspace switching? And how can xmonad 'remember' the sticky window(s)?

Thank you!
Regards, Jakob

XMonad.Actions.CopyWindow.copyToAll

Technically this puts it on all workspaces and therefore "all" screens. In
practice X11 only allows the window to be in one place at a time, so
whatever screen it's on when you copyToAll it is where it will stay.
