I wrote up a script that I call on opening URL's instead of calling
firefox directly. It checks to see if there's a firefox window on the
current desktop. If there is one, it'll focus it, and open the URL in a
new tab there. If there isn't one, it'll just open a new window right
where you are.

I really agree that opening links in new windows is a very suboptimal
solution. What about the fix that Colin Walters is suggesting? Also what
is Compiz doing that Metacity isn't? Can we just patch that behavior?

I'm feeling a little frustrated in that everyone is concentrating on
metacity when the exact same problem happens on kwin, and the workaround
doesn't work correctly on that platform. IMHO, if Firefox works badly on

is wrong,

Your suggestion would change the behavior of the single-workspace case.

For the record, this even seems to behave differently on my two boxes;

Thanks! This kindof fixes the problem. Although it really isn't the same

The option you mention make the tab open up in the background. It SHOULD

So, appearantly where you open the tab also defines where your window
travels. :/
