Bug Description

Steps to reproduce the bug:

- In ccsm enable Ring Swither to use alt+tab for 'Next Windpw Key (All Workspace)'. Follow to disable the default key combination in Unity plugin.

- In ccsm's 'General Options' set 'Desktop Size' to 3x3.

- Go to workspace 3,1 (horizontal, vertical; starting from top left) and grab any window by the title bar and drag it to the right edge so it expands to the right half of the workspace.

- Navigate to workspace 1,2 using ctrl+alt+arrow keys and press alt+tab until you see the window you just moved to workspace 3,1

- Release the alt-tab and you will be taken to workspace 1,1 (instead of 3,1) and you will see the right edge of the window on workspace 3,1 that was shifted to the right for approx. 2-3cm for some reason

- Try other combinations
