Hi again, sorry for the delay in responding.

I just installed Gnome Classic and the bug continues there. Tooltip is
always the same when hovering with the mouse over any of the four work
areas shown in the selector.

However, when looking at the preferences of the workspace selector, it
says the number of workspaces is 1. When I increment this number in the
preferences, the selector changes from a rectangle with four divisions
in it to two rectangles, three, four, ... and then the tooltip on each
of them shows properly the workspace number.

Well, this is confusing to me, so I made a series of screenshots to show
what happens (see image attached).

Don't know whether it's worth filling another bug or just saying it
here.

Anyway, as you said, I also think this is a minor flaw; maybe moving it
to some kind of "Gnome Classic papercuts" category would help to remind
it's still there in case someone wants to work on it. As you see fit :-)

Also, I don't know for how long this Gnome Classic will be maintained.
Maybe it's better for people wanting to have a classic look to use Gnome
Shell with the proper extensions? (didn't try to set it up this way,
honestly).

Title:
  Same tooltip on both workspaces when using Compiz

Status in Compiz:
  Confirmed
Status in Compiz Core:
  Confirmed
Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
  Invalid
Status in “libwnck” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  To reproduce: Use Compiz effects, either normal or extra. Put the mouse
  over any of the two workspaces in the switcher, both show the same tooltip:
  "Current workspace: Workspace 1".

  It doesn't happens when using no effects (just plain metacity wm): tooltips
  in the switcher are different for each workspace, and correct.
