I use Mod + CTRL + K , Mod + CTRL + J... if I'm not wrong this is the
default configuration, otherwise just add
awful.key({ modkey, "Control" }, "j", function ()
awful.screen.focus_relative(-1) end),
awful.key({ modkey, "Control" }, "k", function ()
awful.screen.focus_relative( 1) end),
to your rc.lua in the key binding section

You can add the following expression
if mymainmenu.hide then mymainmenu:hide() end
to a the root.buttons bindings to close the menu when you click on an empty
tag and or add the expression to clientbuttons replacing
awful.button({ }, 1, function (c) client.focus = c; c:raise() end),
with
awful.button({ }, 1, function (c) if mymainmenu.hide then
mymainmenu:hide() end ; client.focus = c; c:raise() end),

What do you mean by "wrong head" ? On my setup (archlinux with 3 monitors)
Firefox starts on the head containing the mouse pointer.
You can define rules to have an application launched always on a defined
head and/or tag(s)
