Could you point me to the spec and the specific place that states how the _NET_WM_DESTOP property should be handled? I'd assume the window manager is resposible of deleting this property from the client window and map all windows on all desks when it terminates. How else should the WM find out about windows that are not mapped when it starts and that are never mapped by the application?
