Bug Description
I'm running Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty) on a laptop with an external monitor. I like to keep Eclipse up on the external monitor at all times no matter which workspace I'm on, so I right-click the Eclipse window and select "Always on Visible Workspace." However, when any dialog window/box is opened in Eclipse (e.g. Help -> About Eclipse), the main Eclipse window loses its "Always on Visible Workspace" setting. The expected behavior is that the Eclipse window always maintains its "Always on Visible Workspace" setting until I manually disable it or restart the program.
I should mention that I'm not using the Eclipse package from the Jaunty repository because it's too old. Instead I'm using the Eclipse Galileo binary distribution from eclipse.org. Visual effects are disabled in System -> Preferences -> Appearance.
Also, this bug seems very similar to bug #377934. The differences are that it's happening to me using Ecilpse on Jaunty rather than Firefox on Intrepid.

Oops, I made a typo in the Ubuntu version number. Of course I meant Ubuntu 9.04, not 9.0.4.
