Public bug reported:
In settings, under multitasking > application switching, setting
"include applications from the current workspace only" is supposed to
provide workspace isolation, making only apps in the current workspace
show in the dock. For example, if I have 2 firefox windows in workspace
1, and a terminal window in workspace 2, terminal should not show as
open in the dock in workspace 1, and firefox should not show as open in
the dock in workspace 2.
Additionally, quitting all windows from right click in the dock should
close only all windows of that app in the current workspace.
This mostly works correctly, but for some reason some apps, including
nautilus and software and updates, do not respect it. If you switch
workspaces with them open, the new workspace shows them as having the
same number of open windows as the previous workspace, even though no
windows are open in that workspace. If you quit with right click from
the dock, it sometimes quits all instances across all workspaces. If you
open a separate window in the new workspace with right click on the
dock, it then updates to the correct number, but the problem then
returns on switching back to the previous workspace. If you open and
close a window in the new workspace, then switch back to the old one, it
is possible to get to a point where despite several windows of the app
being open in that workspace, it shows as not open in the dock.
