Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: compiz

In the "Desktop Wall" compiz plugin in the "Bindings" tab there is a section "Move within wall".
I have a 2 x 2 desktop. I want to be able to chuck my mouse on the edge of the screen (top/left/bottom/right) and use the mouse wheel to scroll up/down to go prev/next workspace. This has worked fine for me since 10.04 or earlier. There are two problems:

1) I cannot get "Move Next" and "Move Prev" to work at all. Key
bindings, mouse bindings, screen edges with mouse buttons or key
combinations and mouse buttons just doesn't work. "Move
Up/Down/Left/Right" all work fine - but it appears compiz doesn't know
which is 'next' and 'previous' for workspaces.

2) I can't get screen edges to work with the binds for "Move
Up/Down/Left/Right". If I bind "Move Up" to <Super>Button 4        then
hold Super and scroll up, it will move upwards within my workspaces. If
I bind "Move Up" to <TopEdge><Super>Button 4     then I am unable to
trigger it. This is true for any edge, any mouse button, and
Move<AnyDirection>.

I can't seem to get the "Viewport Switcher" plugin to do much of
anything really. The keybindings for "Go to specific viewport" all work
- but the "Number-Based Viewport Switching" doesnt do anything, and
"Desktop-based Viewport Switching" doesn't seem to do anything either.
