In general, we prefer to use data-driven approaches, where you tell us in advance what you want to do when a space switch happens ("move this window to the active space", for example), and we take care of doing it for you. That allows us to keep the space switch animation fast and fluid, and also allows us to change the space switch behavior in future releases while still keeping compatibility with what your app requested.

Okay, so that explains why there is no notification. Now can you explain why there is no API to actually switch spaces?

Probably a case of applications switching spaces for users would get incredibly annoying when they started doing things the user didn't want to happen.
