Description Alex Graveley 2005-03-25 01:32:03 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
In Gnome 2.10, a change went in to Metacity that causes gtk_window_present and 
gdk_window_focus to behave differently.  Whereas before calling this function
would cause the window to be relocated to the current workspace if it was shown
on another, now the active workspace will be switched to the one where the
window currently resides.

The documentation should ackowledge this API break, or the code should work
around the Metacity change to revert to the old behavior.

See bug 128380 related to the Metacity commit.

Steps to reproduce:

Does this happen every time?
