Sure, an option to create a workspace and/or switch between different workspaces can really help.

Agree with Adrian, there should be in the Preference the way to set the workspace path.
Don't understand what it means with "multiple workspace": it is possible to save and load project from different workspaces.

Finally resolved.

Added a preferences page in which you can set:
- workspace path
- locale for the guy
- java head memory to be used by JGrass

Defaults need to be added to the preference screen upon loading.

Loading the preference page does not load any default values for the "maximum heap memory" and so trying to apply a different workbench issues an error (see attached screen shot).
