I try those new shiny DEs from time to time and always come back to xmonad.
In particular, I need to be able to have desktop #x on display #y and desktop #z on display #t, i.e. have virtual desktops independent from the multiple displays setup - a feature that other DEs / WMs seem to never provide.
This is very practical to, say, keep your emails always visible on one display while switching between other tasks on other displays.
Sure, sometimes a release of xmonad will make the chrome dropdown menus stop working [1], or some other weirdness, but all in all, it's quite stable and I can focus on creating a workflow that really suits me and that I never need learn again.
