Hi all,

I use KDE with 10 virtual screens (or virtual desktops, or whatever
they're called). Naturally each screen has a bunch of related jobs.

Unfortunately, when I kill and restart chrome (or when I save the
session, log out, and log in again), Chrome opens up a single window
asking me whether I should restore previous sessions. I click yes,
and the windows come up - in random screens.

To remember which window should go to which screen, I end up doing
something silly like opening a tab searching for "3" - that's a cue
that this window belongs to screen 3.

Is there a better way to do this?

crbug.com/18596 is a bug I filed a while back for this. It specifically (I guess, although it's not stated) applies to GNOME workspaces. I'm not sure how easy it is to do this for both (i.e. if KDE should have a separate bug).
