I think it's a great idea, although I'd want to see it on the pager as
well. Probably as an option.

No, it shows you either: all the applications in the current workspace, 
or all the applications in all the workspaces. Not the applications for 
an arbitrary workspace.

Using the window list plugin, there are often too many application in a 
single list. Also, this would attach the application list to the 
graphical representation of the different workspaces, which should make 
navigation a lot easier.

If no else is going to, I'll have a go at implementing this, as I'd 
really like to try it out.
