Summary:                    XFWM/ROX Pinboard incompatable
Description: 
Whenever I use XFWM (usually I use metacity) with Rox-Filer as my pinboard
application, it acts in an annoying way - when I click on an icon on the
pinboard, I am jumped back to the workspace where the application was
minimised.

i.e. I minimise an app on workspace 1; I move to workspace 5; I click on
the minimised icon on the pinboard; I am transported back to workspace 1
where the app is maximised back.

In metacity, when I minimise an app on workspace 1 and then click the icon
while in workspace 5, the app restores to workspace 5, not 1 - this is
much more compatible with pinboard use, this is the entire reason to have
a pinboard: to use the desktop as a temporary taskbar.

Is there a way of tweaking XFWM, or could XFWM be updated, so that it
worked like metacity in this situation, as described above?
