How to create a global list, across spaces

• Set a global list in one space, and let other spaces use this list, to avoid updating the same list many times across spaces.
• Let say, you have a list in space 1 (key : S1)
• You want space 2, to have space 1 list, just add one label in space 2 : refspace:S1
• This special label will tell space 2 to show the list of space 1.
• The same procedure can be repeated in other spaces, to let them show space 1 list.
