Title:
  (Horizontally) Maximized and Fullscreen Windows activated in different
  workspace move to primary display

Status in Compiz:
  In Progress
Status in Compiz 0.9.11 series:

Status in compiz package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  Prerequisite: multi monitor and multi workspace environment

  1) Move to a secondary workspace and open your default browser (firefox, chrome...)
     window, then move it to the secondary monitor¹ and maximize it (or full screen it).
  2) Move to the primary workspace and in a terminal launch:
     xdg-open http://ubuntu.com
  3) Now move back to the secondary workspace

  Expected:
  4) The browser loads Ubuntu homepage and is still in the secondary monitor (where it
     used to be)

  Actual:
  4) The browser loads Ubuntu homepage, but it has been moved to the primary monitor.

  I attached a video where this is displayed by showing that the browser maximized is in monitor 3 of workspace, I go to different workspace, click a link, upon returning the window is now in the laptop monitor.
  This only happens when the window is maximized.

  [1] primary monitor could change in compiz (and not match the xrandr
  one), then you might need to try to figure which one is yours.
