[Bug 456613] Re: Eclipse loses "Always on Visible Workspace" setting

** Description changed:

- I'm running Ubuntu 9.0.4 (Jaunty) on a laptop with an external monitor.
+ 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 #377934.  The differences are that
  it's happening to me using Ecilpse on Jaunty rather than Firefox on
  Intrepid.
