[Bug 105355] Re: "Confirm Close" dialog can come up in wrong window on file->quit when firefox is open in multiple workspaces

[Aidan Furlan]

I have a similar issue (running Gusty, Firefox 2.0.0.12):
Open firefox in two workspaces (workspaces 1 and 2). 
Open evolution in workspace 1 and make sure evolution is the last thing clicked in this workspace.
Switch to workspace 2 and make sure firefox is the last thing clicked in this workspace.
Switch to workspace 1 and click a link in an email. The link will open in workspace 2 instead of workspace 1.

The same thing happens if you try to open a local .html file in
workspace 1 -- it will open in firefox in workspace 2.

This bug is also related to
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/18150

The behaviour seems to be that firefox always uses whichever process was
last active to open a new tab or dialog, instead of preferentially using
the process on the current workspace.
