Bug Description

Dear Ones,

This is a complicated bug to explain conceptually so here it is in practice:

1. Have a window open in Workspace 2. View Workspace 1.
2. Press and hold Ctrl+Alt and press right.
3. Press and hold Shift as well and press Left.

What should have happened is that you have moved from Workspace 1 to Workspace 2 and then you dragged the window from Workspace 2 to Workspace 1 along with the view.

What happens is that that you move from Workspace 1 to Workspace 2 and then back to Workspace 1 without dragging the window.

The Shift that is being added to the key combo seems to not be counted and acted upon. In Unity the window does get dragged as expected.

Thanks and Blessings,
Shahar

Reproduced and confirmed. This is a problem with metacity, as it handles these key combos.
