This feature is currently available in SVN only, GWorkspace needs a new 
release, but I am trying to squeeze a couple of bugs, it is planned soon.

small stuff, like being able to put an image as desktop background with 
"uniform" scale (but perhaps that was already present in the past release).
Furthermore, the dock style (modern vs. classic) will also enable a 
different style of selection rectangle (thanks to Eric for all the help 
debugging that mess).

The dock is left/right only, at the bottom it would interfere with the 
tabbed shelf and/or the Windowmaker dock.

For the future, more things are planned, but this gworkspace release 
needs to get cleaned up and released! It is long due.
