Replying to [comment:8 dknoto]:
> OK. Is the design issue is reason enough?
Since it's only an issue in your opinion, no. You're welcome to try to
convince us otherwise though.

Except it doesn't, since Installer can be invoked as an app at any time
later (and from any workspace), and would result in extremely annoying
behavior in those cases.
> Installer window jumps when move from one workspace to another. This is
bug.
No, it isn't. That's been an integral feature of windows + workspaces
going to the BeOS days. "I don't like it." != "It's a bug." It's in fact
quite handy in many cases.
I might further note, if you actually want to convince anyone to change
things, you might consider adopting a less adversarial conversation style,
your responses to date do nothing to motivate anyone to change things.
