A FMW file is essentially text so you could use the Text File writer.
More importantly, what exactly would you want to do with a workspace writer? Create workspaces on the fly? Is there functionality you're currently missing?
Yes i know it's just a text file but the goal here is to build a dynamic workspace according to customer needs with its own transformers

I have a feeling this could rip a hole in the space time continuum and suck into it all FME Consultants from around the planet!

Yeah, it would be great with a writer. Lets say you need to create a new workspace and you got all the information about your readers and writers in a file, lets say an xsd. You do some magic and bam, you got a nice workspace shell to work with.
