I've had the same problem and requested a different solution-- before the Tracker was in place so I don't have a request reflecting this. I wanted something akin to multiple workspaces within a project which is not much more than a set of open files. In your case, I'd open a workspace for the special request, then flip back to my original workspace after the request is over. One advantage is that I could keep the temporary workspace available for a time before discarding it inc case a follow up call came in. The one other thing I'd like for the workspace is the ability to restrict a search to just the files open in a particular workspace.
