What were they looking for here? I use workspace switcher on XFCE with
12 or 15 workspaces and use each workspace for a standard application or
terminal window with an ssh connection to a particular host. By being
consistent about what is where it is easy to go to a desired application
or terminal session.
FWIW what I've observed in an unrelated usability study (one we did for
systemd that involved working with terminals) is in gnome-shell, when
you go to the overview you have a bunch of black rectangles (the
terminal thumbs) that all look the same, so the task of identifying
which black rectangle was the right one to click on to get the terminal
you needed was challenging.
