I've just upgraded to the latest beta (0.5.81 from Yoann's PPA), and am testing
Rekonq (I'm really impressed, so far!). However, I have to confirm this bug is
still present, and is even more unpleasant than before. As a matter of fact, if
before I could identify a pattern in its behavior, it's become harder to me,
now.

I happen to have 2 to 4 browser windows open (1 only per virtual desktop, at
most), and when I click on a link from an external application, the window on
the current desktop is never used, nor a new one is opened. Instead, as I seem
to understand, sometimes the user is taken to the desktop where there's the
instance of Rekonq on which the page was opened, while others the user is
randomly taken to a desktop where there's an instance of Rekonq running,
although the page was actually opened in another instance on a different
desktop. I remember seeing Rekonq taken to the current desktop once, if that
was the only instance running, but I wouldn't sign that.

All in all, Rekonq feels much improved since last time I tried it - thank you
for all your work! However, in my view, this issue still makes it
user-unfriendly to those who, like me, run their system on a multi-desktop
environment. I hope this gets fixed for 1.0.
