That's beginning to sound like a design flaw, not an excuse to throw
in a island. If your kitchen is too much like a gymnasium to be used
efficiently, maybe it's time to go back to the drawing board.

One other thing I forgot to mention is that islands seem to always
have problems with finding even half-way good places to put electrical
outlets.
