 Is there any Atom to query the root window or any window for in Xlib to
 find out what the current active worksapce is, enlightenment does not seem

nope. it doesn't. it doesn't export/expose this because netwm ideas of virtual
desktops are way too primitive for e as e allows dsifferent desktops to be
active on different screens (areas of the root window).

EatsKittens,

OK, completely unencumbered by knowledge here, this random thought (er,
hack) just came to me:

If you knew where the mouse pointer was, e.g. what screen it was on,
