Bug Description
When option "Workspaces span displays" is enabled, gnome's "Activities overview" does not work as expected.
Indeed, in the primary display only windows opened on the current workspace are shown while in the secondary displays the windows of all workspaces are shown.
* Expected behavior:
Activities overview only shows the activities of the current workspace for each display
* Actual behavior:
When workspaces span displays, the secondary display show the open windows of all workspaces
