Title:
  If gnome-shell has been installed & logged into then only 1 workspace
  will be shown in Workspaces

Status in “metacity” package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in “unity-2d” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I mainly use unity (3d) but have noticed that at some point when trying unity-2d I can only see/access 1 workspace from "Workspaces"
  I'm not currently aware what settings change(s) in unity cause the folder ~/.gconf/apps/metacity to be created though could be tracked down
  I don't think that having an empty %gconf.xml in the parent dir. is uncommon, but in this case is certainly the culprit.
  If I remove it, log out/in then all 4 workspaces show up. If I return it then, log out/in then back to 1
  Currently in  ~/.gconf/apps/metacity
