Steps I tried to reproduce the bug: 1) Using brightside-properties, set the timeout to the longest value.
2) Checked that there was indeed a long timeout before switching 3) Grabbed the vertical scrollbar on the side of a fullscreen firefox window and moved right. 4) There was the expected ~1sec delay before the workspace changed and moving away from the edge avoided the change, as expected. Maybe a newer version of metacity or gtk or something changed the behaviour? My system information from reportbug is as follows.
