Linux: Keep browser from jumping workspaces in KDE
The Problem
In KDE there is a real annoying "feature" to where if say you have your browser open in workspace/desktop one, and your viewing an email in workspace two and you click a link, the browser will be moved to workspace two. This behavior makes multiple-desktops absolutely pointless, in my opinion.
The Duct-Tape Solution
Ideally, you should be taken back to workspace one when clicking the link, but since that doesn't seem to be an option in the settings, the next best thing is to force the browser window into only being allowed on the specified workspace.
To do this simply right click on the title bar of your browser, goto Advanced -> Special Application Settings. In the window that pops up, check Desktop, select Force from the drop-down menu, and then select the desired desktop you want to lock that window to.
