Depending on the request you can often go directly to the developers - of
the Workspace switcher in this case - and file a request in bugzilla.

This is already possible.  I normally avoid workspaces completely on a
matter of principle but once I turned them back on and resized my panel to
a fairly huge 128 pixels and the Workspace switcher expanded it became
easy to click on the mini windows and drag them from one workspace to
another.  The problem may simply be that the mini windows are too
difficult to grab on a smaller workspace switcher.
