Workspaces don't define revisions, they select them based on a revision
selection rule. So revisions aren't "loaded" into a workspace, the workspace
provides a rule to select them. A client could use the workspace to access
revisions and cache them locally to effect a "load" operation, but this is not
part of the protocol.

<gmc/> A common scenario is "label everything in my workspace with a
particular label"....

What does it mean "... everything in my workspace ..."?

Workspace has a set of working revisions checked out in context of this
workspace.
Workspace has current activity, that has at least two different associations
with
resources: latest in activity and modified in activity.
Workspace has revision selection rule. This rule for each resource may define a
revision or nothing.

Does workspace have a set of resources loaded into it? I didn't find it in
specification (but I'd like to).

Thanks,
Viktor
