Something to help me switch between workflows. Everytime I want to switch to a different project (i.e. writing code for software project X to designing a mockup for software project Y), I don't even know how much time I waste getting my development environment, tools, documents, ideas, etc. setup.

The context switch cost decreases significantly. An added advantage is a clear separation between work and play, its harder to sneak open a procrastination tab when you have to explicitly switch to the procrastination desktop to do it.
