Bug Description
The expose mode for an individual app doesn't switch workspaces. The global expose does, however.
To reproduce:
1. Open a window of an app (say, Terminal) in Workspace 1.
2. Switch to Workspace 2.
3. Open another window of the same app.
4. Double-click on the app's icon on the Unity launcher. This brings up the expose, showing all windows for that app across all workspaces.
5. Click on the window that you opened in Workspace 1.
What happens:
Unity switches to the window in Workspace 2 (whichever window was most recently opened in the current workspace).
What should happen:
Unity slides across to Workspace 1 and switches to the window that you clicked on.

Hi,
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately I'm not able to reproduce this behavior in a full updated Natty install. If you could execute the following command it will automatically gather debugging information. In a terminal:
