Not exactly the same but along the same sort of lines ... running Ubuntu
and wanting to get an app to keep itself to one workspace.  Eg, I like to
have my IRC/messaging running in Workspace 4.  But it always seems to open
up in the workspace I am in ... an inconvienence rather than critical :-)

Any suggestions?
