Here is the solution I came up with:

Very fast & easy, without any installations/extensions:

Install dconf-editor (already installed on current debian/ubuntu distributions):
```
sudo apt-get install dconf-editor
```

Open dconf-editor (from the Dash or a Terminal)

Navigate to: org -> gnome -> shell -> app-switcher

Set "current-workspace-only" to true

..and you're done :)
