  What it says in the title.
  
  I dislike multiple desktops, and also dislike the Workspace Switcher
  taking up a tile in my launcher.  Even if I used multiple workspaces, I
  still wouldn't want the tile in my launcher.
  
  So I've used MyUnity to change the number of workspaces to 1.  Up until
  Unity 5.12, this took care of both of my problems.
  
  Now, with Unity 5.12, doing this also disables the spread function.  If
  I click the launcher tile for an application that has multiple windows,
  absolutely nothing happens.  This makes it cumbersome to manage an app
  that has many windows open.
  
  Please revert whatever change disables spread on a single-workspace
  configuration.  Alternately, please allow some way to remove the
  Workspace Switcher tile from the Launcher (that's a bigger problem to me
  than actually having workspaces I do not use).

  3v1n0:
  The bug happens in Compiz due to the fact that window->defaultViewport() does 
not always return an invalid value when there are offscreen windows. For 
example this bug seems caused by "gtk-window-decorator" windows like this one: 
http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/1066811/ that according to compiz are in the same 
workspace of the window we're trying to focus, even if they're actually outside 
it.
  The bug doesn't seem to happen all the times here, but it happens always to 
many other users.
