i3wm: Alternando para espaços de trabalho e movendo contêiner para (mesmo) mapa de espaço de trabalho para diferentes espaços de trabalho

Existe uma razão pela qual você está mapeando esses ícones via polybar e não o arquivo de configuração do i3? Não estou dizendo que há algo de errado em fazer isso dessa maneira, eu simplesmente sou capaz de fazer o que parece que você está descrevendo inteiramente dentro do i3:

bindsym $mod+1 workspace 1: 
bindsym $mod+2 workspace 2: 
bindsym $mod+3 workspace 3: 
bindsym $mod+4 workspace 4: 

bindsym $mod+Shift+1 move container to workspace 1: 
bindsym $mod+Shift+2 move container to workspace 2: 
bindsym $mod+Shift+3 move container to workspace 3: 
bindsym $mod+Shift+4 move container to workspace 4: 

As caixas são ícones incríveis que eu copiei/colei diretamente no arquivo de configuração. Decidi que gostava de ter um ícone apenas para descrever o espaço de trabalho, pois costumo fazer certas tarefas apenas em determinados espaços de trabalho (por exemplo, espaço de trabalho 2 é navegação na web, espaço de trabalho 3 é edição de terminal/código), mas você pode facilmente fazer o seu configuração do " ícone h0me ".

Talvez mudar isso para o arquivo de configuração do i3 em vez de por polybar possa obter os resultados desejados.
