When you click the icon of an app that has no windows on the current workspace, you should be switched to the workspace which contains windows for it. Or this should at least happen as a double-click action. If I double-click Empathy with 2 windows on different workspaces, they're gathered in Scale to my current view. If there's one window on a different workspaces, though, I have to switch workspaces until I find it.
