This is an interesting proposal (which i need to think about it a bit more),
tough in the meantime made me me think another approach:
* Virtual desktops as usual
* a virtual desktop can be pinned to an activity, so switching to it
would also switch the activity (and the other way around.. i guess)

so there would be some desktops fused with an activity some not.
the association could be 1:1 or m:n.. tough i see m:n would risk to
gather again a very confusing ui
