Greetings,

I would like to have a layout where each program, according to rules, not 
only is on a certain workspace but also in a fixed position.

Imagine a workspace grid 2x2 and if you open thunderbird it should always 
be top left. And firefox always bottom right (let's assume only single 
program-instances for now). The other two spots are deserved for other 
programs. let's say an irc client and a media player. IRC bottom left, 
media top right.
 
In other words: no matter how many of the reserved programs are open and in 
which order they are opened they have a fixed spot.  

Is this possible with Qtile? I am well versed in Python, so an answer "in 
principle yes, look here and here in the code, use this hook"  or so is 
already a good answer.

Bonus request: 
-Prohibit other windows from getting moved to this workspace, or opened in 
this workspace. Auto-move them to another workspace.
-In case of a second firefox window: Even if it matches the rule if the 
space is already occupied auto-move that as well (or better: do not move at 
all, when not started from this special layout)
