I don't think it's Unity overriding the behavior, just the behavior that it's broken.

If Unity would override the shortcut for showing all windows for just showing those on the current workspace, we could still use a different shortcut for showing all windows, and that doesn't work either.

Changing the behavior of the showing all windows to just showing those on the current workspace when such a behavior is already available wouldn't make any sense, since if that would be the intended default behavior, just the shortcuts would need to be changed.

Although now the shortcut help screen says that the shortcut defined in the scale plugin for all windows is to spread windows in the current workspace, so it may be Unity overriding the behavior after all... hope not. :-(

The windows of each workspace are seen flying around, so they are being restored to their original workspace instead of the active one.
