[Bug 1474181] [NEW] Windows slightly moved when using workspace switcher

 

Public bug reported:

When using the workspace switcher, selecting a workspace can slightly
move the window below the cursor. This can be quite annoying when using
multiple workspaces with two semi-maximized windows each. Switching
between the workspaces often moves the window a little bit so it appears
in the task switcher of the neighboring workspaces.

Steps to reproduce:
- open two windows on one workspace
- semi-maximize them (i.e. ctrl+super+left/right)
- activate workspace switcher
- select the workspace while slightly moving the mouse
- the window below the cursor has now been slightly moved and appears in the task switcher of neighboring workspaces

I realize that this is more of a papercut bug report, but I find it
quite noticeable and annoying with my workflow. It might also be less of
a problem with other mice, but the touchpad of recent Thinkpads (e.g.
X240) often moves the mouse slightly when the touchpad is pressed.
