You can't.

Such things don't fit the multiple-clients-per-frame model.

Eh? You mean raise a window on a WFloatWS? Try Mod1+click.

Create bindings suitable for such a setup. I'm sure others have made
such bindings, maybe someone would be kind enough to post them.

In a released version, you can't, but I just changed this in SVN.
Apparently at least the version of bash that I currently have (and
that's good enough for me) can automatically 'exec' the last command
in a sequence of commands to -c so that we don't leave useless shells
laying around consuming resources even if Ion doesn't add 'exec' prefix
to every command executed.

Mod1+F3 querylib.query_renameworkspace(_)

Not by default.
