I know you were joking around, but believe it or not, you've solved
an issue I've had for quite some time, the solution to which I
couldn't quite put my finger on.

Workspaces seem to be about a mindset more than anything else. Kind
of like Sylvester Stallone in "Over The Top" putting his baseball cap
on backwards right before getting serious about an arm-wrestling
match.

I haven't been using workspaces because I tend to forget which one
I'm in at any given moment and start doing the wrong thing in the
wrong workspace. That results in a lot of clicking back and forth to
find out where this or that is. I ultimately give up and go back to
using one workspace.

Thanks to you, however, I think one of my activities is about to
become much easier and more pleasant. I sometimes open a metronome
at X number of BPM in one tab and then start hunting through music
videos in another tab to find something that's exactly that number of
BPM. I can't tell you how many times I've accidentally clicked on the
wrong tab or closed the wrong tab while doing this. How much nicer it
will be to put the metronome in a different workspace so it's
completely out of sight and ticking away while I focus on just going
through music files in the current workspace.
