that would oblige xmonad users to change their configuration.  more
importantly, users of other window managers would be affected too,
without a ready-to-hand solution.

on the other hand, if it's really easy to implement in xmobar and
someone sends a patch, i'll be happy to include it in the distribution,
although i'll probably provide it as an opt-in configuration parameter
in StdinReader.
