3) What I expected to happen is on my Maverick host, when I have a fullscreened or unmaximized Firefox window on workspace 1, and a full screened VBox guest Maverick on workspace 3, I can right click the Firefox window -> Move to Another Workspace -> Workspace 3 the Firefox window does so.
4) What happens instead is that it does not. Seems like a VBox+Xorg issue as I can move the window to other workspaces and back no problem.

Are you sure Firefox is not just showing up underneath the fullscreen VM window?
