Comment (by humdinger):

 I don't think dknoto was particularly adversial. Please always remember
 that English isn't the mother tongue for everyone. Sometimes that may
 appear snippy.

 Anyway, it's good that it has been pointed out that there may be a problem
 with accidental workspacing. Esp. when there's no Deskbar around. I'm not
 sure the current solution to show on all workspaces is ideal though. It
 may be a bit annoying when using Installer from your working Haiku
 installation. I often try out a new build by using Installer to put an
 image onto another partition. While Installer is churning along, I keep
 goofing off on another workspace. Now I'd have the installer window around
 everywhere...

 I can hide the window, but coming to think of that, the option to minimize
 Installer should be disabled also in the typical install situation, i.e.
 when Deskbar isn't running...
