Unity behaviour is definitely broken.

1. With multiple windows of a program open, clicking on the program icon
only shows two windows in the overview mode. The icon in the launcher
however DOES indicate 3 or more windows open.  (3 white dots)

2. Selecting the non active window  (the one which is in the background)
does not bring it forth and it remains hidden under other windows.

3. Sometimes, clicking on icon with an open window does not bring up the
window at all. I've completely lost thunderbird like this. No idea where
it disappeared to.

Title:
  Launcher Multi window/Multiple Viewport display is too confusing

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I have no other way of bringing this up, that I know of. Hence I'm
  reporting this as a bug.

  Prior to some recent updates, clicking on a launcher icon, for a
  program with multiple windows open, would display ALL the related
  windows, across ALL the workspaces together, so that the user may
  select which window he needs to select.

  Now, It only shows windows open in the current workspace. And if it's
  not in the current workspace, it takes you to the worskpace in which
  the window instance was last used.

  This behaviour is too confusing.  Even the Super+w combination only
  brings up windows in the current workspace. Completely ignores the key
  bindings in the compize plugins which relate to  this function. Which
  is unexpected behaviour.

  It used to work more predictably before. If anything, I suggest you
  have a Super+w to show windows of current workspace, and ALT+super+w
  for all workspaces.

  Why change something that was perfectly usable?
