That's not true. There are keyboard shortcuts available to directly
switch (or move windows) to *any* workspace.

Run 'gnome-keybinding-properties' and see these settings:

  Window Management / Switch to workspace X
  Window Management / Move window to workspace X


Anyway, as long as you don't intend to implement this yourself or at
least discuss whether this would be a good feature, questions like this
seem more appropriate for the general purpose gnome list [1] than a
devel one...
