Comment 41 for bug 689733

@Ego:
The Aim of workspaces is the SEPARATION of different tasks. I really don't like to see things going on on other workspaces, they are distracting me. And I also hate switching the workspace accidentally by clicking on an icon belonging to another workspace.

but ok, users are different.

that-fore, i would suppose to include an option, but unfortunately, I think we are at the wrong address @ canonical for such things... :-(
(their aim is to reduce the number of options, whyever..)
