Yes, defining the groups as workspace could be a solution (if I understand
Sawfish correctly). We tried a few setup and it seems to be enough to
simulate our management process.

By duplicating the sawfish-pager on all the workspaces (or rather � tasks �,
as we are using this paradigm) we managed to obtain a first satisfying result.

Yes, exactly.

Now we are going to see if we can easily modify the pager in order to have
the workspace name into the tooltip.

I will probably have several questions to ask you in the next days, so please
don't run away :)
