Comment #7 on issue 313 by audunska...@gmail.com: Merge contrib's  
isFullscreen and doFullFloat to core
http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=313

I am not convinced that a doFullFloat is the right way to handle  
fullscreen; this should be up to the user to decide. I would therefore go  
against putting this hook into the default config. Making it available in  
core seems resonable though.

There is a module now called XMonad.Layout.Fullscreen that sends messages  
to let the layouts themselves decide what to do with fullscreen windows;  
this seems to me like a more xmonadish way of doing things. As long as we  
want to provide several ways of handling fullscreen, providing a default  
seems counter productive.

BTW, thanks for the improved fullscreen query (from alexey). I will look  
into using it for X.L.Fullscreen.

Disclaimer: I'm the author of the mentioned module.
