Feature request: Separate hotkeys for "search on this workspace" and "search on all workspaces" #124

Open hgomersall opened 3 years ago

Firstly, this app is fantastic and is almost perfect for my usage.

Currently it is possible to have the behaviour be either show apps in this workspace or show apps in all workspaces. It would be nice if both behaviours were available during usage - I suggest with an alternate hotkey for each (like super-w and super-e).

To me the use cases are quite different. I often have many windows open writing code on the same workspace and want to flick between them fast, but don't need the clutter of all the other workspaces. In the other case, I want to find a window wherever it might be.

I'm not opposed, but I'll have to think about it a bit. (Or someone else can think and provide code). My main question is: how would this interact with the currently existing options for current workspace related stuff? I don't really use the shell workspaces feature in general so feedback and ideas are very much appreciated.
