Implement "New Space" Feature for use in Lion #43

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. As of Lion, we are now given the ability to create and delete so-called 
"Desktop Spaces" via Mission Control on-the-fly. This is a beautiful feature 
that could be used to dedicate a location for csshX to work on.
2. Window management with 8+ hosts on your active desktop was always a 
nightmare :). This is why --screen and --space were added, but 10.6's spaces 
was terrible.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I assume --space doesn't work under Lion, though I admit that I haven't used it 
yet!

What version of csshX (do a "csshX -v") are you using? On what operating system 
version?
csshX v0.73- (current SVN HEAD, r180) under 10.7 Lion

Please provide any additional information below.
Yep.

I just confirmed that spaces support is very broken in 10.7. This is due to 
changes in the undocumented API calls. I'll have to try and find some 
workarounds, but I suspect it will take some time.

I unfortunately cannot be of any specific help, but I imagine that "numbered" 
space may be gone. Whether they are or are not, as long as there is the ability 
to manipulate Mission Control via scripting bridges, all hope is not lost. I 
would love a --new-space flag I can pass to csshX to say "create a new Desktop 
space and move your windows to it".

Having "--spaces #" correspond to any existing Desktop Space is still helpful, 
if such a mechanism exists in the scripting bridges.
