Comment 10 for bug 868423

one things we could do easily would be to drop the icon from the launcher and set the ws number at 1 by default, but the side effect is that we don't have an ui to change the number of workspaces ... having a small gtk gui accessible in the workspace switcher should right click list would be easy to get though

the workflow to get to use workspaces would be to dnd the icon to the dash, use the list to open the "change number of ws" small applications and be good, a such small frontend is probably not a lot of code and not really risky (we can copy i.e the gnome-panel code) and might be a middle way solution for the lts
