I use the MATE desktop. I had originally thought I could achieve my 
goals using MATE's workspaces.

I found one reference stating explicitly that it cannot be done.

Therefore I'll change my metaphor.
It is routine for one machine to support multiple independent terminals.
Logically one expect that those terminals could appear on the host device.

How might this be done?
TIA
