Spaces isn't new...
Authored by: bpartridge on Tue, Nov 13 2007 at 2:26PM PST
The reason this works is because the backend for Spaces was implemented in Tiger - the API just was never documented. You Control Desktop, Desktop Manager, Virtue Desktops, Spaces, all of them use the same Workspaces API, and the same list of Workspaces. Spaces just puts a cool (and actually debugged) GUI and new animations on top.

You could just put some arcane key combination as the Spaces shortcuts, and then make Keystroke shortcuts to whatever you want using Butler.
