Well, that was my intention. Two different versions in the current WS. If 
you don't like this you have to set up different WS eg Test1 and Test2 and 
so on.

Not necessarily as long as it becomes clear what they show and what is 
different. If they are the same at least one of them is redundant.

Generally there is little response to my WS related posts (see my recent 
"RFC: file mounts and work spaces" on dev and hci)
