Ok.. it seems easier to just connect to all windows and keep track of those (since in my opinion the window should still stay in the same workspace even if it gets moved while in a single monitor setup). Do I have to explicitly disconnect from the window after it gets the 'unmanaged' signal, or will the object get deleted?
