Bug Description

Binary package hint: unity

hi,

When we click the workspace switcher , we can move a application 'under' a workspace.

1. open a terminal in the top workspace(left/right, doesn't matter)
2. press super+s or click on the workspace switcher.
3. drag the window up so that part of it gets visible in the bottom workspace. drop window there.
4. come down to the bottom workspace.
5. drag that window up from the bottom workspace to top workspace.

see the magic.

I attached a video.

After I enabled dragging windows between workspaces, (which eases my workflow a lot), I run into this VERY frequently. I just now realized how I keep accidentally loosing windows, (that I can see running in the unity launcher).

Any reason this is marked as low priority? I'd argue that any bug that is easily reproducable on a stock setup which can cause windows to disapear without being accessable is a rather big deal. Especially since for a rookie user you'd click on the application icon and the window would not reapear, and the application would not relaunch.
