Xmonad: move new floating windows

As described in this and this question, my floating windows sometimes appear behind other windows when using xmonad along with compton. One of the possible workarounds I want to try is to make xmonad move the new floating windows slightly, which should display them above other windows. However, being new to xmonad and Haskell, I have no idea how to achieve this.

How do I tell xmonad "When a new floating window is created, move it one pixel to the right"?

(xmonad-0.10 and xmonad-contrib-0.10)
