Summary: dialog windows are hard to find in XFCE4

Initial Comment:
Studio creates dialog windows with the 'utility' window manager hint by default.

This makes the dialogs not appear in the taskbar.

In GNOME, metacity will pop all the dialogs to the front whenever you switch to 
the toolbox or a canvas window, but when running xfwm4 (XFCE4's window manager) 
the dialogs are never brought to the front.

This makes it hard to find them - they tend to get lost underneath 
full-screened web browsers or other windows.

I started a thread on the XFCE4 development list about this, unsure whether 
this is a bug in their window manager or in synfig studio:
