Similar requests have been made in the past. The problem (IIRC) is that the WM doesn't have any way of knowing that the application announcing itself or requesting a window to be managed (probably a better term for that) is the application that was lauched on workspace "Foo". There is really no correlation between a given launch request and the window appearing that the WM can act upon to put the window on the requested workspace. All current attempts to do this are messy kludges that may or may not work. -- Jamin W.
