Bug Description
If i have one nautilus window open and start a copy operation, and make sure that the copy dialog is showing, I have the following situation:
- 2 pips are shown in launcher under nautilus (well, under the "home folder" icon really)
- clicking on that icon to activate the spread will show only one window, the main one. the copy dialog isn't shown in the spread.
This is inconsistent with the way other applications work. Either the launcher should show only one pip, or the spread should show all windows.
I noticed this after switching to Natty
This can be verified much easily by just starting Gimp and then noticing how it has 2 pips in launcher, but only the main window in spread: the toolbox window isn't shown in spread.

My gut feeling tells me that the launcher, like the spread, should ignore toolbox and other transient windows.
