Is this fixed only for Windows or also for Linux?  I encounter a
similar problem under Linux, where the “The status window stays always
on top of other windows” option in the preferences has no effect
whatsoever.  Fortunately, I am able to get the window to stay on top
using the “On Top” entry in my window manager's per-window menu.  (My
window manager is Metacity, the default in Ubuntu Dapper Drake.)

I'm using Workrave 1.8.5, because I haven't been able to build 1.9.0
(as reported in earlier messages).
