It first switches between applications in the existing workspace before going to others. You notice that in the popup; it has a line between current workspace and others. Took quite some getting used it in the beginning. Still not sure if the behaviour is better or not (sometimes I like it, sometimes I hate it).

My problem is I'm about 99% in the hate it camp ;-)
I actually like GNOME Shell looks, BUT

I suppose one can grow accustomed to anything, but I imagine that in scenarios where you have 8+ desktops each with 2-3 windows the list would grow quite burdensome. Always showing one of 2-3 is a lot simpler; it's pretty rare that I want to see a long master list of all windows.

I use 8 workspaces usually. More of less the same as in GNOME 2, there I had 12 configured, but mostly used about 8 of them (rest were empty).
