Well, this all depdends on how you exit WindowMaker.  If you exit with
Control-Alt-Backspace or 'kill' or some other thing like that, the
settings won't save.  Only "Exit, Exit..." will save the settings.  Take
note, too, that 'Main' might be a predefined default that you can't change
on the first workspace.
