Bug Description
Binary package hint: unity
1. Open a doc in libreoffice and create a pdf of it and save it.
2. Create a pdf again, with the same file name. This dialog box comes up on one monitor
3. Libreoffice asks if I want to overwrite the file. But this dialog shows up on the other monitor
4. Confusion ensues.
I've seen this happen with other apps too.

Has this got something to do with LibreOffice/Java? Can you reproduce this in a GTK app such as Nautilus/ GIMP/EOG/ Banshee/ Rhythmbox/ Empathy/ etc ?
