That's great. Chris asked the point of spawning, and I didn't know either.

So, based on what you say above, and looking at TextEditor>>spawn, is 
this how Workspaces are supposed to work?

Enter "3 + 4". Save. Change the text to "3 + 4 i". Spawn the Workspace. 
The NEW Workspace now has "3 + 4 i" as its contents, while the current 
one has "3 + 4", the contents as at the time you last hit cmd-s?

Ah, indeed, that's how it's supposed to work according to trunk. OK. 
Well, my code's almost right then :) I'll make it all the way correct, 
and submit it to the Inbox.
