1# Let's say, I'm on workspace 5. Then I hit the shortcut for starting an application that is assigned to another workspace. Is it possible to auto-follow the app(container?) to the workspace it is assigned to, i.e. auto-switch to that workspace?
2# Now something similar: follow the container when moving it to another workspace. Possible?
You just have to execute two commands. Start the app or move the container and go to the specific workspace. Your #2 is even covered in the i3 user guide. More specifically, it is the second example in Section 6:
bindsym $mod+x move container to workspace 3; workspace 3
You can use for_window [urgent=latest] focus in your config for that.
