Have 'sticky' option for a tiling window
There exists an experimental patch for i3 that does this, so maybe it's worth looking into that. I'm afraid we won't see this in either i3 or sway for a long time though.

Showing a window on several workspaces?
For floating windows, as others pointed out, stickiness is a good answer. For tiled windows things become naturally more complicated. A long time ago I prototyped i3-sticky, feel free to check it out – but an actual "product" would have to be built out of this to be really usable, I think.
What are some alternatives?
