Just not true, afaik - that's what I mean by "the exact same user-visible behavior could be done with the EWMH-workspace implementation." I'm sure it's annoying to change at this point, of course, but it's also kind of annoying to go fix up apps and libwnck and gtk and so forth to deal with either implementation approach. The good news is that not many apps care, probably.
