I've posted more followup in 
https://github.com/georchestra/georchestra/issues/887, but after adding 
some debugging logging calls to 
src/main/src/main/java/org/geoserver/security/SecureCatalogImpl.java it 
seems to me that checkAccess() in filterWorkspaces() is the call denying 
my user to see all workspaces:

With this diff: https://gist.github.com/landryb/3c64f83030f387558d59

Here's what i get with a non-privileged user which has access when 
geofence is not enabled:

[geoserver.security] - testing geor_loc for principal testeditor
[geoserver.security] - nope, denied
[geoserver.security] - testing wmsproxy for principal testeditor
[geoserver.security] - nope, denied

And here's what i get with an admin.

[geoserver.security] - testing geor_loc for principal testadmin
[geoserver.security] - testing wmsproxy for principal testadmin

So, geofence is acting somewhere around here... at least i know the 
codepath used.
