I recently found all my exposed filters were missing in all of my panels, after upgrading to the recent 7x Dev. Went through all my views and saw there is no more Exposed filter in block, unless a 'Page' view was used. Most of my views are content panes.

Is there any work around?

You can use the content type called "view exposed widgets" which uses a view context in panels.

Let's move this to ctools.

I'm experiencing something similar with a Content pane views display: the exposed filters are displaying, but they don't work when submitting them. Specifically, all the query arguments are correct, but the form's action attribute is / instead of /[path] (and hence it's incorrectly submitting the form to the home page).

Maybe this needs its own ticket?

You need to select inherit panel path I think.

Content panes do not inherently have their own path, and exposed filters in a block need a path, so that feature should not have been available on them in the past.

Yep, that makes sense. So ignore my comment then, it's not related to the block exposed filters issue.

I actually do have to ask a question, because I was unable to get the exposed filters to work, due to the same problem as #3. Even with the panel path inharetied, the exposed filter will not redirect to the corrosponding page. I have spent the past few days trying everything, and nothing will work with panels. The only way I can get an exposed filter to work is by "cheating", which is;

creating a page, with a path, and exposing the filters in a block. Then I disable the page, but keep a a content pane- and use panels to override (page is disabled, so path is now open). The 'disabled pages' exposed filters will still remain active, and redirect to the correct path.

Is there any future problems i will see due to "cheating" this way?

Same problem as well (using a content pane with inherit panels path and filter redirect to a wrong url)

Same issue here as well although I am using version 6.x-1.8 (with version 6.x of Panels and Views).
