I can't relate to this nor to many Linux fans being up in arms about the KDE 3.5.x to 4.x changes or the Gnome 2.x to 3.x changes. Linux has more desktop environments and window managers than one can shake a stick at. The KDE devs finally got things sorted out and I suspect that the Gnome devs will eventually do the same. In the meantime, find something else ...
And realize that when Microsoft makes a change with Windows or Apple with Mac OS X, most users have little choice but to adapt if they want to stick with the platform.
I switched to Xfce with the release of Debian Lenny (am on Squeeze now), well before the Gnome 3.x changes, had no problems and workspaces have worked fine for me. Similarly, while VirtuaWin on Windows is not as feature-rich as Xfce workspaces, it gets the job done for me.
