I have this sort of working. It can only tag a single window since it uses sway's marks and a mark uniquely identifies a single window. And it doesn't work for moving a window into an empty workspace since there has to be an existing window to scribble the _ATTACH_ mark on. But it seems to work well enough for moving a window between containers in a Notion-like way.

 # Tag the currently focused window. Untags any previously tagged window.
 bindsym $mod+t mark --toggle "TAG"
 # Move the previously tagged window to the currently focused container.
 bindsym $mod+n \
 mark --add "_ATTACH_"; \
 [con_mark="TAG"] focus, move window to mark "_ATTACH_"; \
 [con_mark="_ATTACH_"] focus, unmark "_ATTACH_"; \
 [con_mark="TAG"] focus, unmark "TAG"

That seems like a totally reasonable limitation

That's unfortunate, might be something to revisit later

Yeah, sounds great, I'll try to test and commit it soon!
