>From the Ubuntu bug report:

I am using the xmonad window manager, which does tiling of windows. In OOo, when
I open a file chooser, the chooser gets managed like a normal window, which
usually means the window I'm working in suddenly takes up half the screen and
the other half is taken up by the chooser. Which is very annoying.

In e.g. Firefox, the file chooser gets put in the floating layer automatically
because it is marked as transient. Evidently OOo's file choosers are not marked
as transient - they should be.

I'm pretty sure this only happens with the gnome fpicker. At least if I
understand what he is talking about. When using the Gnome fpicker the file
dialog box shows up as a separate window in the Gnome taskbar as well. When
using the built in openoffice.org file dialog it does not. When using other
Gnome applications like gedit (text editor) opening the gnome file dialog does
not cause another window to appear. Assuming this is the same bug the Ubuntu
user originally filed about it appears something needs to be done in the code to
mark the window as 'transient' to make this happen.
