[Bug 933776] Re: [regression] scale/spread: "Initiate Window Picker for All Windows" does not show all windows. It shows only windows from curent workspace.

 

Putting back to Confirmed for 12.04, since the commit in question was
eventually reverted and the problem is more complex in 12.04 than it
would first seem. The bug itself would be fixable, as known, but not
without changing the default behavior for all users which is not wanted.

The desired 12.04 solution of having the default unchanged but adding
two new shortcut keys to GNOME Control Center as described in the bug
description would be otherwise acceptable, but it's tricky and there is
no such work done. The problem as I understand it is that the current
default key combo in 12.04 (but not in 12.10) is bound to the wrong
action, so there would be a upgrade migration mechanism required and it
still might have hard time getting accepted into a stable upgrade in
fear of regressions.

Meanwhile, as this is now not included even in the next precise SRU, I
created a PPA including the next proposed compiz SRU added with this fix
- ppa:timo-jyrinki/compiz-12.04-fix-933776
