Virtual Desktop Improvements: 2D movement, separate per-monitor virt desktops

[kauffy]

Description of the new feature / enhancement

The built-in virtual desktops in Win 10+ function well enough, but lack some features that make them useful. I say this with Linux virtual desktops in mind where I could have a "grid" arrangement of 9 virtual desktops, which is unwieldy when you can only access them left-to-right.

Scenario when this would be used?

Not having two-dimensional arrangement is almost unforgivable-- for me, it's a make or break. It's not that I have nine desktops worth of things going on, it's that each desktop can contain windows related just to a particular thing, which helps me a lot with distraction. For example, desktop 5 (number the 3x3 grid from top left across), which is in the middle, allows me to be one keypress away from Quick Lookup, Task Management, Reference Docs, and Chat Apps, and two keypresses from anything else. With the existing Windows style, it doesn't even make sense to try and organize these unnamed, sequential desktops.

The other option is a feature in another program that started to make sense-- separate virtual desktops per monitor. Even without the 2D arrangement, having functions limited by monitor could mean that I only have, say, two v. desktops for each monitor, in which case they wouldn't need better arrangement or identification.
