Bug Description
Separate instances or windows of an application cannot be placed on separate workspaces using drag and drop in workspace overview. For example if I have two different files/marlin windows open or two different windows for browser open then they cannot be placed on separate workspaces.
Edit : I just realized that Shift + Meta + Arrow key can be used to do this. This is not at all intuitive. Also this can be cumbersome if you have more than two workspaces and want to switch from 1st workspace to 3rd workspace.

You can't identify separate windows of one application by their icons anyway, as they look the same. So it would not make sense to place two icons if there are two windows of one application. Instead you should use "manual" moving via window menu or shortcut.
