** Description changed:

  1) Open any application or window on a workspace and move it more than 50% outside the screen's edge so that the remaining part resides on another adjacent workspace
  2) Now try to switch to that application or window using alt-tab or window spread the application is brought to focus but the workspace now switches to that adjacent workspace mention in (1) . This workspace switch is not desired.
  
  I have attached a video which demonstrates the problem.
  
  I have narrowed this bug down to the "desktop wall" plugin. If I switch
  to "desktop cube" plugin using CCSM then the workspaces do not switch
  while switch to windows/applications which are placed as described in
  (1)
  
  I am running Ubuntu 12.10 with latest updates. Quantal proposed sources
  are enabled but the bug is present even in compiz from default quantal
  sources.
  
  Compiz version : 1:0.9.8.6-0ubuntu1
  
  If any other information is needed I will try to provide it as soon as I
  can. Thanks.

+ -----------------------------
+ Desired solution:
+ 
+ - Do not switch viewport when selecting the window that is more than 50%
+ in another viewport.
+ 
+ - Leave the window in its current position and focus it.
