Bug Description

After pressing F12 on Terra terminal or Guake and the terminal is being shown, I can't add new workspaces using Meta + Arrow Right, and the plus sign is not beign shown on workspace list (Meta + Arrow Down). I have to manually restart gala to allow me to add a new workspace.

It happend to me after I set Empathy to appear on all workspaces, shifted to the second wp, opened a new window (Brütal Legend), after closing said new window, and returning to the first wp, the "always empty but the plus sign" workspace was gone.

I have this messages when launching gala from console, and then show or hide guake pressing F12:

Window Manager Warning: CurrentTime used to choose focus window; focus window may not be correct.
Window Manager Warning: Got a request to focus 0x300002e (Problems w) with a timestamp of 0. This shouldn't happen!

This issue also affects me.

I use Yakuake and have visible on all workspaces.

I have a hunch that the issue isn't related to drop-down-ness, but rather -- more generally -- wisible-on-all-workspaces-ness of app windows.
