and doesn't solve the problem that it is still a dialog. When you put it=20
somewehere to not interfere with other windows by e.g. placing it next to t=
he=20
panel you make that dialog part of the workspace. When it is part of the=20
workspace it has to be native that is: Plasma. But dialogs are not part of=
=20
Plasma.

And again what if you don't run KWin? What if you run a tiling wm? Or a wm=
=20
which ignores the requested geometry? Dialogs just opnening out of nothing =
are=20
broken by design and should not be used at all. That's one of the flaws in =
the=20
Ayatana spec. But talking about it is like fighting windmills :-(
