I am facing the opposite bug where switching to a workspace with a floating window will always focus the floating window, regardless of what the last focused window was. Not sure if that should be a separate issue?

Floating windows are rendered at the top of the Z order when switching to a workspace where they are contained - this is going to be the intended behavior going forward
