I've written a short contrib module to scratch an itch I've had even since jcreigh made the first Xinerama support. I like dwm's module, where workspaces on different screens are conceptually distinct, even if they have the same name.
Isn't this how workspaces have worked in xmonad for a long itme? Each screen is already a view onto an independent workspace from a shared list of workspaces -- I'm confused as to what you're trying to add. Does the feature hinge on "even if they have the same name"? The one xinerama / workspace feature I think would be nice (but probably quite difficult) is support for mirroring -- where a workspace being shown on one screen doesn't preclude it from being shown on another. To do it you'd probably have to special-case viewing the same workspace more than once using xrandr, and it would be weird. -- Fred
