<div>Hi everyone,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I have enjoyed using gnome shell since it came out, and would like to first thank you for your great work.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I sent a similar message to the nautilus-gnome list, and was about to include this suggestion in that message, but then realized it should be posted to a separate list than the nautilus list.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>This is my first time posting on these lists, but I was wondering if anyone suggested the following:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Having the option of making workspace behave independently:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>1 - Being able to lock each workspace at will, and that workspace cannot be viewed an what is on it unless password is given</div>
<div> </div>
<div>2 - Being able to have more than one user, each using a separate worspace, and this can behave like running a subuser for the workspace, under a main user for the whole desktop</div>
<div> </div>
<div>3 - Being ale to logout from subuser, and then the workspace returns as belonging to the main user</div>
<div> </div>
<div>This can be nice for a quick operation without having to logout of the current desktop session for example.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>It comes close to multiseat, but not fully.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Hope this is a useful idea.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks again for your time</div>
</div></div></div></div>
