A unique feature to Window Maker's virtual desktops is the clip. The clip basically allows you to create a kind of separate dock per virtual desktop so if you have a separate VD per type of task (e.g. web, chat, code, art, media, games, etc) you can put the relevant launchers on the clip instead of the dock and leave only the global stuff (like docklets and utilities like a terminal, notepad, file browser, etc) in the dock. I actually ignored that for years, until i decided to try it out and found it much easier to work with since i could create many more launchers than if i had to fit everything in the regular dock (of course i could also use drawers - which sadly are not yet supported by the clip - but i think having the launchers per virtual desktop is better).
