Indeed, can we associate more than one mouse per workspace, or unique
mice trapped in a workspace? :)

One mouse cursor per workspace is not enough!

Seriously tho....One really big issue (read: Nightmare) that will
inevitably occur is how to multi-thread OpenGL, and whether or not you can
have an OpenGL window in between two workspace. Must two hardware
accelerated cards be running at the same res, must they be the
same manufacturer? Can one display use software acceleration, and another
use hardware and have a rendering window shared between both.
...shudder...
