Gnome2/Mate-like desktop switcher -- avaiable in unity?

Is there a way in the default Ubuntu desktop to pre-create a 2d set of virtual desktops?

This is the main feature that keeps me going back to Mate... I can have a desktop switcher with 24 desktops in a 6x4 grid.

After running this way for like 20 years (since the fvwm2 days) it is difficult to give it up; which is what Unity, Gnome3 and Cinnamon all want me to do.
