Bug Description

Before Edgy, a simple and intuitive way to move windows across workspaces was to use the "drag window" key (alt, by default), click on the window to drag it, and then switch workspaces (with the "move to workspace N" shortcut, in my case alt-FN), bringing the window along with the workspace switch.

In Edgy, the workspace switch doesn't happen if you are dragging a window, breaking this (useful and expected) behavior.

Thank you for your bug. Probably an upstream change, opening an upstream task so bugsquad has it listed "to forward"
