> The widget shows the current window position on each desktop.
Technically, this is very very challenging to address. I doubt that this bug will ever be fixed.

Created attachment 182560 [details] Out of sync window positions when pinned and tiled SUMMARY A window that has been pinned to multiple virtual desktops and tiled, causing it to be able to be in different locations on each desktop, shows up in the Pager widget as if it's in the active desktop's position on all desktops. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Set up two virtual desktops, side-by-side 2. Enable Show window outlines in the Pager widget configuration 3. Open a window and quick-tile it to the top-right 4. Pin it to all desktops (de-syncing the window's position on the two desktops) 5. Click back and forth between the two desktops in the Pager widget OBSERVED RESULT The widget shows the window to be in the same position on both desktops, choosing whichever position it has on the active virtual desktop. When switching desktops, the window's outline moves on both desktops. EXPECTED RESULT The widget shows the current window position on each desktop.
