Comment #1 on issue 593 by allber... at gmail.com: moving a gimp window to  
another workspace problem
https://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=593

If Gimp is using a Gtk+ palette window, you don't have any say about what  
workspace it is on; it will be moved with the main window. You *may* be  
able to explicitly move the palette window to another workspace (assuming  
they use EWMH and not native X11; in the latter case it will be  
override-redirect and xmonad and other window managers can't control it at  
all), but don't be surprised if Gtk+ moves it back with the main window at  
some point. (One of the annoying things about the EWMH spec is it  
explicitly takes control of this kind of thing away from the user and gives  
it to the program.)
