This is the behavior I wish Firefox could have out of the box (Reuse-window-in-current-desktop otherwise create-new-in-current-desktop). Much better than jumping to another desktop or opening tabs hidden into another desktop.

Description of problem:
When I open a new tab (via right click on a terminal, clicking on something in
liferea, whatever), firefox immediately jumps onto the current workspace.
This is irritating.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
firefox-2.0.0.6-11.fc8
Additional info:
Seems related to the startup notification patch, as it worked ok in
2.0.0.6-8.fc8.

The issue in this bug only occurs when there are multiple workspaces.
Removing this Firefox patch would be a regression in the single workspace case
because it would require clicking on a flashing browser entry in the task list
after activating an external link.

I wrote up a script that I call on opening URL's instead of calling firefox directly. It checks to see if there's a firefox window on the current desktop.

@Emilio: I notice I was a bit incomplete in my description in my previous posting. What I meant to say is that this indeed happens across workspaces, but also across monitors. If I start Firefox maximized on my second screen (mouse pointer on that screen, patiently waiting for the window to appear), it starts on the desired monitor, but it'll move to the first screen after about half a second, even if my pointer is still on the second screen.
