[Launchpad Bug Tracker <1321221@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I have just migrated from Fedora/Gnome3 and am too used to workspaces to
get along with the defaults that unity has :-)

So I have used unity-tweak-tool to give myself 8x1 workspaces, and put
thunderbird in one, firefox in another, etc. What I am finding is
several times PER DAY I suddenly discover that a bunch of apps are now
in the same workspace rather than the separate ones I put them into. I
still have 8 - but most are empty

There is no error, and they (say) go from 5 in use to (say) 3 in use -
not a total collapse and not showing any app dependency. eg I may find
firefox and thunderbird in the same workspace and another time find
remmina sitting underneath some terminal shells

The only extra piece of info is that it appears to only happen to the
workspaces that I'm not currently in. ie I don't see this happening in
the current one - always another one. Sort of Heisenburg's uncertainly
principle at work!
