Bug Description
Maximizing a window can move it to a different workspace.
To reproduce:
- make sure you're in a workspace 1 (top-left workspace),
- open a window (i.e. gedit), make it large, but not maximized,
- move the window in the lower half of the current workspace,
- press "maximize" button - the window will disappear from the current workspace and will appear maximized in the workspace below
Expected:
- window should not disappear, and should be maximized in the current workspace.

That's clearly because unity (or it it libmetacity?) determines the workspace where the majority of the window resides. Instead of this determination, the window should simply be maximized in the current workspace.
