Solutions:
* Fix bug #773587. The focused window must _always_ be on the current workspace.
* Parent windows should be able to have focus, but when focused any click or keystroke will prompt it to transfer focus to the dialog.
* There should perhaps be an option to keep dialogs and their parent windows on the same workspace; moving one should also move the other.
I tend to do everything from the keyboard. The 2nd solution would allow me to move, resize, minimise, etc, the parent window.
I think Ayatana Design should be involved in this.
