Title:
  unity launcher scale function has reverted to current workspace only

Status in Unity:
  Invalid
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  The default thru natty and until recently on 11.10 has been to pull all windows of a window group from ALL workspaces when left clicking on a launcher icon
  The new behavior is to only pull from the current workspace if there is more than 1 window of that group open, all other windows of that group on other workspaces are ignored.

  There were 2 related bugs in natty that opposed each other, the first one was fixed (though not directly), and describes what is the default in natty and was in O
  Bug #707214

  This one was the complete opposite, never fix released   but  is representative of the current behavior - 
  Bug #689733 

  Obviously only one can be the intended behavior - which one?

  If  it is now intended to only pull from current workspace than at the very least you need to free up the key binding in the scale plugin  for window picker for window group 
  Obviously I believe it should pull all windows from ALL workspaces of the clicked on app (window group
