Public bug reported:

I discovered this problem when working with many open documents.
I use the program in the same way as we use "GIMP": different open files, and 
floating
dialogs.  
The idea is that if I open a document, I can use the dialog boxes.
If I raise another document (e.g. click on the taskbar), the dialog boxes 
should remain where they are, 
and I can use the same dialog boxes for a different document.

This does not work now:
* when opening different files by launching inkscape by clicking in the file 
browser ("Nautilus"), the different open files do not share the same dialogs.  
This is unwanted!
* when opening different files by opening the file within inkscape, there is 
this bug:

1. Open a drawing "A.svg" 
2. Open some dialogs (e.g. line style) using "floating" dialogs.
3. Open another drawing "B.svg" by File->Open .  The file "B.svg" is raised on 
top, the dialogs remain (OK)
4. Click on an object in this drawing
5. Now click on the line style dialog.  Immediately, "A.svg" raises!!  This is 
unwanted behaviour!
