Looking forward to using it ;-)

Could be.  I was thinking that maybe it can be made fairly simply: when
you select workspace W in screen S, the only change is to skip (leave
alone) all the windows that are not in screen S.

We already have the notion of "this window is in screen S" for example
when you do a fullzoom (or when you choose where to place the aux
information box while moving/resizing), so we'd use the same notion.
