Is it possible to have sticky non-floating windows? SImilar to this request: https://github.com/koekeishiya/yabai/issues/1843
I'd like to have a constant window on my screen as I flip through workspaces.
"sticky sidebar" windows bring some challenges
But in general, I like the suggestion, I always wanted to have sticky non-floating windows in i3
Maybe we are better off with a feature like "virtual monitors". That way you could place two virtual monitors on your physical monitor. You could cycle workspaces only on one of those virtual monitors
Is there any update on this? I have some widget windows; it would be great if we could keep them on all workspaces.

That's indeed a great thing to have. For i3 I typically use xrandr to split up a 5120x? physical device into three virtual monitors, the latter of which can then be used for workspace assignments.
But this does not necessarily solve the issue for floating (possibly workspace-independent) windows (assuming a certain preference for floating Zoom/Teams/etc. because it's easier to re-arrange during meetings). So I'd vote for both :)
