Try Activities and set a shortcut to Meta-Tab to switch between activities. I love it so much for running several projects at once and keeping all my browser/terminal/IDE/SSH together and out of each others way. You can also use Meta-Q to bring up a list.
Also, Meta-T for snapping windows into tiles with Shift-Drag multiplies that organization.
The sheer productivity gains of using Plasma makes Windows look pathetic.
