[Bug 1295639] [NEW] move to workspace loses track of window entirely

 

Public bug reported:

Moving a window to another workspace using the context menu options
"Move to Workspace right" or "Move to Another Workspace" causes unity to
lose track of the window entirely - it disappears never to return.

Note: the processes associated with the windows *are* still running as
shown by xlsclients.

Moving the windows manually to another workspace (by shifting the window
almost off the screen to the right or bottom, then changing to the
appropriate workspace and pulling the half-obscured window into that
workspace) works.
