Hmm, tough call. It's not a bug. But I gotta admit it's kinda
hard to call it a feature. The problem is that moving the
sticky windows around when you change workspaces leads to some
rather annoying behavior (for instance, all the sticky windows
would be moved to the top each time you change workspaces).
However, it is something I'm aware of, and I'm working on a
better fix for the next major release.
