There's desktop-save-mode which can be used therefore.  See

  (info "(emacs)Saving Emacs Sessions")

for details.  It's not exactly like the grouping you'd like to have,
because there's only one open workspace at a time and switching
workspaces involves closing all files/buffers of the current one and
loading the new ones.  So quickly jumping between buffers of different
workspaces is not possible.

So many people open one emacs instance per workspace, which has other
drawbacks of course.

Hope that helps,
