This works for me for in a compiled Compiz 0.9.12.2 using KDE and Debian 8 at least for me. 
(Don't remember when it first was fixed, but I think it's been fixed for a while)

This is definitely more a bug than a feature request. Compiz has had bindings that use screen edges for a long time, as well as prev/next Viewport.  
`ccsm` program -> Desktop section -> Desktop Wall plug-in -> Bindings tab -> ...

@Fabio (fcole90) Was your comment/change meant for a different bug?, or
does the Ubuntu version of Compiz still have this problem, etc...?

Title:
  Desktop Wall & Viewport Switcher: Bindings for "Next" and "Prev"
  workspaces dont work. Bindings that use screen edges don't work.

Status in compiz package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: compiz

  In the "Desktop Wall" compiz plugin in the "Bindings" tab there is a section "Move within wall".
  I have a 2 x 2 desktop. I want to be able to chuck my mouse on the edge of the screen (top/left/bottom/right) and use the mouse wheel to scroll up/down to go prev/next workspace. This has worked fine for me since 10.04 or earlier. There are two problems:

  1) I cannot get "Move Next" and "Move Prev" to work at all. Key
  bindings, mouse bindings, screen edges with mouse buttons or key
  combinations and mouse buttons just doesn't work. "Move
  Up/Down/Left/Right" all work fine - but it appears compiz doesn't know
  which is 'next' and 'previous' for workspaces.

  2) I can't get screen edges to work with the binds for "Move
  Up/Down/Left/Right". If I bind "Move Up" to <Super>Button 4
  then hold Super and scroll up, it will move upwards within my
  workspaces. If I bind "Move Up" to <TopEdge><Super>Button 4     then I
  am unable to trigger it. This is true for any edge, any mouse button,
  and Move<AnyDirection>.

  I can't seem to get the "Viewport Switcher" plugin to do much of
  anything really. The keybindings for "Go to specific viewport" all
  work - but the "Number-Based Viewport Switching" doesnt do anything,
  and "Desktop-based Viewport Switching" doesn't seem to do anything
  either.
