Research direction

Start by tracing how stashed windows are associated with a desktop and how corner-drag and the shortcut activate them; the issue does not name files or tests, so locate those entry points in the macOS app. The desired behavior is for a stashed window to activate from any desktop without sending the user back to the desktop where it was stashed; verify both activation methods across desktops.

Description

Feature
Feature Request Summary

Currently a stashed window is tied to a desktop. If I stashed in desktop 1 and I'm on desktop 3, I cannot activate it by dragging my mouse to the corner and if hit the shortcut it sends me back to that desktop.

I would like to be able to drag my mouse and have the stashed window show up on all desktop. This would make me stick to loop and be a unque proposition as well
