I have CVS that I checked out with the KDE_3_2_BETA_2 tag and it works.  And, it works on 
3.1.4+.  If I turn it off it no longer opens the application in a given window.

I am guessing that it is only a recent feature that it remembers which virtual desktop as 
part of the window settings.

So, my problem can be restated:

I want to be able to set the window size WITHOUT also telling it which virtual desktop to 
open the window in.  As I said in my original posting, sometimes it is useful to have 
something always open in the same virtual desktop.  However, with something like an 
editor, this is not helpful.
