You may have a look at devilspie [1] & [2]. It`s a small app which enables you to control the behavior of any application when it`s started like resizing, pinning, skipping the pager, moving to another workspace etc.. Also it doesn`t depend on a certain window manager (I`ve used with GNOME and XFCE).
