Hi there
Well, perhaps you like this idea
(ideas are easier that programming, are they? :o)
what about a workspace with
on the left a tree pane
with in the tree: saved workspaces
grouped under workspace "categories"
e.g.
aWorkspaceTree
+-aWorkspaceCategory
- aSavedWorkspace
- anotherSavedworkspace
+-yetAnotherWorkSpaceCategory
-yetAnotherSavedWorkspace
..

Greetings
Ted
