the problem is that virtual desktops are spatial in representation and we were 
also showing the activity spatially. ergo the conflict. but activities don't 
necessarily have to be spatial. they can also be purely semantic and a 
compliment to window grouping.

looking at the various use cases for virtual desktops today, it's probably not 
possible to fuse activities and virtual desktops in a 1:1 relationship without 
breaking a large number of work flows.
