Hi,

I am dynamically renaming the workspace via i3-msg (i.e. i3-msg rename workspace 1 to 1: work). I also have the keybinding to switch to a numbered workspace configured (i.e. bindsym $mod+1 workspace 1)

According to manual, I still should be able to use that keybinding to switch to the renamed work space since it includes the number in the title. However, it doesn't work. It creates a new workspace called "1"

You misread the docs: The command to switch to named workspaces with numbers is

workspace number 1

(not just workspace 1).
