They are not interactable, so this seems more like a rendering bug than the windows really being teleported to another workspace. Switching back to another workspace that has windows causes the ghost windows to disappear. Opening a window in the empty workspace makes it appear on top of the ghost windows, and I have to switch to another workspace and back again to make only the new window be visible. I am using the vanilla "GNOME" session type. I did not observe this behaviour with gnome-shell 3.35.91-1ubuntu2. As well as the annoyance factor, of course there's a privacy angle to showing random windows at surprising times.
