That's what I figured. Although, I don't need to actually save the scene at any point.
We're rewriting our render submission ui which updates interactively when things change in maya. Because we have very strict naming conventions, you can't submit to the farm unless your scene is named correctly (We''ve overridden the open/save dialogs to handle this). I wanted to update my ui whenever the scene name changed to let the user know their scene wasn't named correctly. In almost all cases workspaceChanged will works fine, there's just a few edge cases.
