Snapped windows cover more than their half of the screen

[Andrew]

A window that is snapped to a grid to fill one half of the screen actually extends a few pixels too far to the right. Windows snapped to the left side of the screen overlap with windows on the right side, and windows snapped to the right side of the screen extend off the edge of the screen into the next workspace. Windows snapped to a quarter of the screen are not affected by this problem.

Screenshots are attached.

Marked this bug as a duplicate of bug 936784 though what I read from Daniel's comment in bug 774994 the workspace issue may as well get fixed once the fix for bug 936784 is cooked.

Actually it looks to me now like it's a duplicate of bug 898870, but I'll leave that call up to you.
