Title:
  Modal dialogs don't appear on the same workspace/monitor as their
  parent window

Status in Compiz:
  Fix Released
Status in compiz package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: unity

  1. Open a doc in libreoffice and create a pdf of it and save it.
  2. Create a pdf again, with the same file name. This dialog box comes up on one monitor
  3. Libreoffice asks if I want to overwrite the file. But this dialog shows up on the other monitor
  4. Confusion ensues.

  I've seen this happen with other apps too.
