Workspaces

[Dominic Amann <dominic lbs ca>]

It seems that the "debate" between workspaces and viewports happened 
back in January, someplace between someone's ears, and the decision was 
made to drop viewports, and use workspaces.

Tragic.

Sadly, I have always used Viewports, and ignored workspaces. From a 
functional point of view, I find them superior.

Is there any way I can contribute time/skills/whatever to make 
workspaces work in every respect like viewports used to (with the 
addition of user adjustable names)?

It is useful to push a window aside into another workspace to view what 
is underneat, and yet still flick to the other space to view what we 
have just pushed aside. The continuous slide is valuable. It is also 
very useful with somewhat limited screen real estate, to be able to 
flick from one port to another to read stuff that is too large to fit in 
one screen, esp. acrobat stuff that imposes its format on the user.
