Title:
  Non-maximized windows sitting on the border of a workspace move when
  switching workspaces

Status in compiz-plugins-main package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  As suggested in bug #755842, I'm filling a new bug repport. I have
  installed the latest update to compiz-plugins-man
  (1:0.9.7.0~bzr19-0ubuntu10.1), but for me the problem remains: when
  clicking on a launcher icon of some programs that are not in the
  current workspace, they get moved so that part of them is on a current
  workspace. It works like this every time for certain programs.

  My test case is this:

  1. Firefox on workspace 1, Double commander nad K3B on workspace 2 (K3B is positioned in lower right corner, but it is a few pixels away from both edges), Synaptic on workspace 3 (also, its edge is a few pixels away from border), as presented in Positions1.jpg
  2. Move to workspace 1, click on K3B icon -> K3B gets moved like on Positions2.jpg
  3. Move to workspace 1, click on Synaptic icon -> Synaptic gets moved like on Positions3.jpg

  Same thing happens with LibreOffice applications. Strangely, with
  Double commander I have never experienced this.
