Not sure if I understand you correctly (and it's not a language issue :
-)).
If you want to switch the presentation to be a clone of another screen 
by switching the workspace, then that is exactly what this definition 
allows you to do.
If you want to say "leave this monitor to workspace 2 no matter what I 
do" then this is not possible, even though I can imagine it being 
useful. But it could be solved to temporarily override the workspace 
settings for that monitor, and have the window shown on all workspaces 
- at least I can imagine that we might want to implement that feature.

There would be no difference to letting them run on a single workspace, 
just on different screens.
