 Moving a stack of two windows across workspaces can make them invisisble
 or disappear completely (depending on how the move to another workspace
 was done).

 To reproduce:
  * launch Workspaces and resize to a larger size (this makes it easier to
 visually locate where the invisible windows are.)
  * stack two applications together by their tabs
  * move the tabbed stacked windows to another workspace.
  * poof! the window should now be invisible.

 Notes:
  1. using {{{ SHIFT + CTRL + CMD + <arrow keys> }}} will not trigger this
 bug.
  1. using {{{ LeftMouseDown on the tab + CMD + Fn }}} will trigger this
 bug.
    * The applications will become invisible.
    * Upon switching to another workspace, keep LeftMouseDown and move the
 invisble application around. Workspaces will show it moving around.
    * Using {{{ CMD+CTRL+LeftMouseDown }}}, will allow you to move the
 application, but not make it visible.
    * If you're able to guess where the focused application tab is, you can
 make them reappear.
    * To gauge the location of the invisible windows, use LeftMouseDown to
 select a large area of the Desktop. The hole in the selection will
 indicate where the invisible applications are.
  1. using LeftMouseDown on the Workspaces will completely make the windows
 disappear.
    * I have not yet be able to figurs out a way to make them reappear.
 The only solution is to close the app and re-open it.
