Bug Description

the bottom panel is configured to show only windows on the current desktop, and that generally works - except that it shows "Buddy list" window on all desktops, not just the one where buddy list actually is.

I have the same problem here with Ubuntu Jaunty RC!

I talked to some pidgin-guy in the irc, he said that he cannot remember to have such "new feature", so this seems to be some ubuntu-specific change maybe together with the new notification system? I disabled the libnotify-plugin but it didn't help.

Maybe this information is useful to someone?
