plus XMoveWindow() works with all standard compliant X11 WindowManagers
and Desktop Environments.

check for support: XInternAtom(display, "_NET_WM_DESKTOP", True) != None
get: XGetWindowProperty()
set: XInternAtom(); XSendEvent();

It takes 10-20 lines of code to set the the workspace because you need
to send a Xevent; but searching the web for _NET_WM_DESKTOP and the two
function will point you to example code.
