[Bug 1304531] [NEW] Removing an external monitor will move a maximized window to the current workspace

 

Public bug reported:

Removing an external monitor when using multiple workspaces will cause
maximized windows on other workspaces to move to the current workspace.

2. Use multiple workspaces.
3. Open a window and maximize it on a workspace such as workspace 2.
4. Move to another workspace such as workspace 3.
5. Remove the external monitor.

Maximized window will remain on the workspace it was opened on.

Observed behavior:
