</div>If you are using the latest darcs version of xmonad-contrib (and if<br>
you are not, it's not that hard to switch and the development version<br>
is actually just as stable as the releases), you may be interested in<br>
the XMonad.Actions.DynamicWorkspaceGroups module. You can dynamically<br>
assign a name to groups of workspaces and then switch to the group by<br>
name. You could also set up some groups ahead of time in your config<br>
and have some keybinding to switch between them.<br>
