Bug description:
  When I launch the Workspace Switcher with a second monitor attached to
  my laptop, set to a different resolution than the laptop display, the
  rendering is corrupted and window hit testing is broken.

  Setup:
  Laptop: Acer Aspire Timeline X 4830T: Intel Graphics 3000
  Second Display: VGA monitor

  Display does not seem to be blanking in-between painting frames whilst animating to the final Workspace Switcher view.
  Hit-testing for windows is broken.
  See attached screenshot of Workspace Switcher shown with resolutions 1366x768 (laptop) and 1440x900 (monitor).

  In the short term, the rendering and hit-test issues need to be fixed.

  Beyond that, the arrangement of workspaces in the switcher need to be updated to match the new design in the multi-monitor spec:
