Bug Description
When user has more windows placed on multiple workspaces, he cannot see on which WS he currently is and even on which WSs there are any windows open.
On the workspace switcher, there is a small picture showing 2*2 workspaces with windows on the top-left one. Since there is absolutely no clue of current position of the view (current workspace) and other windows, one doesn't know which direction to navigate with Ctrl+Alt+arrowkeys.
I propose highlighting of current workspace on the switcher icon and adding window positions on it like in old gnome indicator.
