Dunno, but when wrap occurs, the pointer is not sent right to the
opposite edge, but 10 pixels off the edge (to avoid this kind of
problem).

So theorically, what you describe should not happen.

However, there've been some changes as part of bug #1141:

http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1141

Since then, no other changes regarding workspace wrap.

Cheers,
Olivier.
