In trying to confirm whether or not Bug #588128 still exists, I found out how I got the different Workspace Switcher Preferences windows as I described in #12 above. (Launch Accessories -> Calculator or any other gnome app, move app all the way to the left of windows, widen to full-width of the display, grab title bar and drag to the left, then widen to full-width again.)

What happened next looked like Compiz had a little panic, with the workspace switcher changing from 4 rows and 2 high, to being 16 wide. And hover over each of the workspaces shows correctly: Click to switch to "Desk n", where I see the number labeled correctly for each of 1 through 16.

Then a right-click on Workspace Switcher -> Preferences displays the Workspace Switcher Preferences as shown in the first attachment (ws-switcher-post-anomoly.jpg). After changing to 8 workspaces, 2 rows, then logging out and back in, I now get the Workspace Switcher Preferences as showing in the second attachment (ws-switcher-post-logout.jpg).
