Description Christian Hergert 2017-09-06 18:41:47 UTC 
If I have Epiphany set as my default web browser, and the app I'm using calls gtk_show_uri_on_window(), the window might not be displayed to the user if it is on another workspace.

This is on a Wayland GNOME session, I haven't tested on Xorg.

This does appear to work with Firefox as the default browser, but that could be related to Xwayland doing something special with startup notification.

It probably expects gtk_window_present() to work.
