Hi Vincent - yes - since updating the setting in gconf the changes that are made
through the applet are retained.

Some additional background that I should have included earlier. I have brought
my $HOME, and my Gnome config, along with me through a couple of different
distros for a couple of years now. Metacity used to use the key
"/desktop/gnome/applications/window_manager/number_of_workspaces" but it looks
like this has been deprecated at some point. Possibly Gnome isn't doing
something sensible with existing configs, and migrating this value to
"/apps/metacity/general/num_workspaces"?

Unfortunately I can't remember if I started fresh with a new Gnome configuration
when I switched to Warty so I'm not sure when this problem may have started.
