Just add as many activities as you feel /need, then, well, I've added a 
panel that hides and un-hides when the pointer gets close and put the 
activity manager widget inside. This acts as a work-space selector. I 
kept, for the moment, two desktops for each activity, but, to achieve 
the old behavior, just leave one and get rid of the desktop selector 
altogether.
