XFWM Swap Workspaces

• https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/xfwm4/-/issues/454

Use wmctl to do it?

• https://blog.spiralofhope.com/1042/wmctrl-user-documentation.html

Looks like wmctrl can do everything required except rename the workspaces. So, how to do that:

• https://github.com/ngeiswei/rename-xfce-workspace/blob/master/rename-xfce-workspace

• ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfwm4.xml

cat ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfwm4.xml
