This is a great idea, I wonder why we haven't thought of it before!
There /must/ be a way to do it. Anyone have some thoughts?

Hmm, it seems like it would be possible to create a LayoutClass instance for something like (WorkspaceId -> Layout Window), which does layout by first getting the state from the X monad and using the current workspace id to select the layout to use.  Perhaps I'll take a crack at it, unless someone thinks this isn't a good idea for some reason.
