Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: wmctrl

Hello,
I run Compiz desktop with several virtual viewports/workspaces/desktops. 

The total size of display is 1680x1050, and wmctrl -d reports:
$ wmctrl -d
0  * DG: 10080x2100  VP: 0,0  WA: 0,25 1680x1000  Compiz desktop 1

The viewport layout has 6 columns and 2 rows. The co-ordinates should be like 
this
(0, 0),         (1680, 0),        (3360, 0),        (5040, 0),         (6720, 
0),        (8400, 0)
(0, 1050),   (1680, 1050),  (3360, 1050),  (5040, 1050),   (6720, 1050),  
(8400, 1050)

This works right.
$ wmctrl -o 5040,0

These fails. The Y co-ordinate has no effect.
$ wmctrl -o 5040,1050
$ wmctrl -o 5040,2100

Note. With Metacity Window Manager, you have to type 
$ wmctrl -s  desktopnumber
While Compiz operates with viewport widths and heights, therefore wmctrl -o X,Y.

For more info.
$ wmctrl --help

Please enlighten me.
