None-alphanumeric characters don't work on workspace names

[WhyNotHugo]

I've a few workspaces that have some "weird" characters just to visually identify them. They seem to work fine on i3, but pressing $mod+1 does nothing on sway. Other workspaces work fine. The debug logs don't show any errors either. Relevant config:

bindsym $mod+1 workspace 1: 
bindsym $mod+2 workspace 2
bindsym $mod+3 workspace 3
bindsym $mod+4 workspace 4
bindsym $mod+5 workspace 5
bindsym $mod+6 workspace 6
bindsym $mod+7 workspace 7
bindsym $mod+8 workspace 8: 🔊
bindsym $mod+9 workspace 9: 
bindsym $mod+0 workspace 10: 

Sway handles and displays unicode characters fine. Perhaps you have a space between the worspace number and symbol in your config?

Try quoting them and make sure all of the commands that reference the ws are consistent.

Yup, quoting them did the trick. Since i3wm supports these values unquoted, can this discrepancy be considered an issue, or should I just close this?

[ddevault]

Yeah, we should probably join the args together when possible. Can leave this open until that's done.
