Move window between desktops?

Questions & Suggestions
16

My original implementation (and I assume @tiffle's original implementation) seemed to be a little buggy on a few fronts:

  1. It didn't always bring the window. The click and hold seemed to be missed.
  2. It didn't always leave the window/application focussed depending on the state of the space it was throwing to.

Adding a small 0.1 second pause and restoring whatever the current application was seems to be working a bit more consistently.
