SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.   Select "Bring window to current virtual desktop" option in settings
2.   Open a window  in desktop 1
3.   Go to desktop 2 and from task manager select that window in desktop 1


OBSERVED RESULT
The window is added to desktop 2
After working some time while using multiple desktops, because of this bug, all windows start to exist in all virtual desktops, thus effectively it becomes a single virtual desktop.


EXPECTED RESULT
It should be moved to desktop 2 (i.e. removed from desktop 1)
