I had put my initial implementation of multiple agenda buffers and
sticky agenda support on git@github.com:7max/org-mode.git branch
multiple-agenda-buffers.

To enable, use M-x org-toggle-sticky-agenda

In order to take full advantage of the sticky agenda, you need to give
your various agendas different buffer names, you can do it by
including `org-agenda-buffer-name' into the list of bound variables in
`org-agenda-custom-commands'

For example:

(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
      '(("a" "Agenda and NEXT (priority)"
         ((agenda ""
                  ((org-agenda-span 'day)))
          (tags-todo "/!NEXT"
                     ((org-agenda-overriding-header "Next Tasks")
                      (org-agenda-tags-todo-honor-ignore-options t)
                      (org-agenda-todo-ignore-scheduled t)
                      (org-agenda-todo-ignore-deadlines t)
                      (org-tags-match-list-sublevels t)
                      (org-agenda-sorting-strategy
                       '(priority-down category-keep)))))
         ((org-agenda-buffer-name "*Agenda*")))
        ("t" "TODO entries"
         todo ""
         ((org-agenda-buffer-name "*Todo List*")))))


When sticky agenda is enabled, most of org-agenda Emacs variables
become buffer local, and org-agenda-quit is changed to bury the buffer
instead of killing it. Correspondingly org-agenda will show previously
buried buffer if it exists, instead of re-generating it.

This allows user to have many "mini-agendas" and switch between them
rapidly

I would appreciate any bug-reports about things not working, and of
course patches or fixes for them. The most likely cause of any
breakage is that `org-agenda-local-vars' list needs adjusting and/or
fixing.

Regards
  Max
