Bug description:
  Running up-to-date Ubuntu Cosmic. Since I am running a version with
  manually applied patched from below, I couldn't use the ubuntu-bug
  helper.

  Bug: When using GNOME extension “Workspace grid” that arranges
  workspaces in a grid, one can find that horizontal switch animation is
  replaced with a vertical one. This is caused by a bug in mutter
  itself, it's acknowledged and fixed in upsteam. Applying the patch for
  the current version in Ubuntu solves the issue as well.

  GIFs of the issue could be found here: https://medium.com/@hkdb/patch-
  gnome-3-30-for-workspace-grid-1ee8b1dd92f9.

  Upstream bug: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/270.
  Upsteam fix: 
https://gitlab.gnome.org/rmyorston/mutter/commit/97a3a9b24b36111155003467d5fac6bb1ec1c60e
 (merged into master 3 months ago).

  The patch to fix is, literally, adding 1 meaningful line:

  From 86a719cc78149b7db189ff7e5d1f16418d257e9e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

  Subject: [PATCH] Allow workspace layout to be overridden

  meta_workspace_manager_override_workspace_layout is implemented by
  calling meta_workspace_manager_update_workspace_layout which
  respects the workspace_layout_overridden flag.  After the first call
  to meta_workspace_manager_override_workspace_layout all subsequent
  calls fail silently.

  Reset workspace_layout_overridden to FALSE before calling
  meta_workspace_manager_update_workspace_layout.
