Public bug reported:

On my system, I use multiple workspaces across multiple monitors.  (I
don't at this point remember how I configured multiple workspaces; I
know it's not in the default gnome-settings UI anymore, I thought I had
configured it via gnome-tweaks but I also don't find it in gnome-tweaks
today.)

In kinetic, the behavior was that when switching between workspaces,
only windows on the primary display would swap; windows on the secondary
display would persist across workspaces.  Weird, unexpected, but ok I
adapted and made use of it.

In lunar, the behavior is the same *except* that when switching
workspaces, instead of the window focus returning to whichever window
was previously in the foreground on that workspace, the focus jumps to
the window on the secondary display.  This is unexpected and unhelpful.
