  Workspaces - It is possible to click on panel AppMenu menus when in
  workspace switcher, but they don't show

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: unity

  When you are in the workspace switcher mode of Unity (on Natty) it is
  possible to click on the menus shown in the top panel by AppMenu. When
  you click on such a menu, on the panel the texture is changed to make
  it look like the menu is open.

  However, any possibly open menu that should be located underneath the
  menu's name is not shown; it seems to be hidden underneath the black
  of the workspace switcher.

  One possible solution could be to make Unity's launcher and panel non-
  interactive when the user is in the work-space switcher. However,
  personally I would prefer to keep the interface sensitive—as to
  prevent user confusion because of a seemingly frozen interface that is
  still there—but instead make everything work, despite the workspace
  switcher being displayed instead of the desktop, or open windows.

  -----------------------------------------------

  Desired resolution:
  - For 12.04, when the workspace switcher is open, the word "Workspace switcher" should be displayed in the top bar, and there should be no associated menu items
  - Post 12.04 when the new spread is implemented, the title of the currently selected window should be displayed in the top bar.
