In #2975334: Prevent changes that would leak into the Live workspace → , we added a basic form validation protection for all forms which are not safe to submit in a non-default workspace because the submitted data could easily leak into the default (Live) workspace.
We should try to inform users that they are not able to submit a form before the validation step, so they don't waste time filling out the form.
There are various proposals for how this could be implemented, however the UX team prefers this one the most:
- When a page that contains an "unsupported" form is opened, display a modal dialog with a descriptive message a link to switch to the default workspace.
Discuss, write a patch, etc.
On pages that contain an unsupported form, a modal might appear out of the blue :)
Nope.
Nope.
Not all content is available!
It's likely this issue predates Contrib.social: some issue and comment data are missing.
This was implemented in
#3062486: Add the ability to create sub-workspaces in order to enable the dev -> stage -> live workflow for content →
(see the bottom of \Drupal\workspaces\EntityOperations::entityFormAlter()) and it's being improved further in

Improve the way entity forms are "disabled" early when an entity is being edited in a workspace
