I'm not sure how you can easily force the number to be exacly 10, but ion3
will remember your layout, so if you create 10 workspaces manually they
should still be there after a restart.

Almost. -name sets the instance atom, so you would do: 'xterm -name
sysmon'. You should use mod_query.query_rename_workspace(_) (or META+m
workspace/rename) if you want it to be started on a workspace and not a
specific frame.
