"When restoring minimized windows" section should be disabled when only windows of current workspace are shown

From a mail to bugsquad (http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-bugsquad/2003-January/msg00015.html): When opening the preferences window of the Window List (Task List), shouldn't the "When restoring minimized windows" section be disabled when in the "Window List Content" section the "Show windows from current workspace" item is selected?
Created attachment 20681 [details] [review] Patch
This patches set the sensitivity of the radio buttons in "When restoring minimized windows" according to the pref of the radio "Window List Content". One question for usability people: I'm setting the sensitivity of the label that categorizes the radio button too. So the label "When restoring minimized windows" is insensitive when the window list shows only window in the current workspace. I'm not sure if this should be done...
Calum: could you comment - I think its the only thing blocking the patch being committed ... thanks
I don't think we actually have a HIG guideline on this at the moment, but visually I'd agree that disabling a group's title when all its contents are disabled seems like the right thing to do.
I've just added a guideline to the HIG, so now it's definitely the right thing to do :)
Fixed in HEAD.
