Yes, this makes sense!
Most X11 window managers let you make any window "sticky", which means
it will show up on all workspaces. Some let you specify which
workspaces a given window should appear on.
Opening a folder on more than one workspace could behave like that,
except that closing the window on one workspace would not close it on
the others (like Jonas already explained).
