Description Rovanion Luckey 2010-02-15 17:23:31 UTC 
When the user drops an application on, lets say workspace number two, and then enters another workspace some windows, not all, launches on the current desktop rather than the desktop that the application icon was dropped on. This is very disruptive and especially so on older machines where some applications can take very long time to launch.

It has been said that a movie shows more than a thousand pictures, so here is a short screencap of the issue: http://blip.tv/file/3221125/
