Have you tried just setting things up the way you want them and then
select the menu item WorkSpace->Save_Session. I have about a dozen
things I start that way, including several xterms, and they all start
in the proper workspaces. It seemed like Gnome might have caused
problems with that, but I didn't find that Gnome provided enough more
than just WindowMaker to make it worth while.
