Seems to be unnecessary: if I comment out the frame-visible-p check, I
get the fancy splash regardless of when I switch workspace, and I see no
bad side effects.

Maybe that means this part would also be unneeded:

  (defun fancy-splash-frame ()
    [...]
    ;; MS-Windows needs this to have a chance to make the initial
    ;; frame visible.
    (if (eq (window-system) 'w32)
        (sit-for 0 t))
