There are two issues that I see which complicate potential solutions here.

This is probably why many applications are not workspace aware.
Gedit does the right thing.
On MS Windows? On KDE? Portable is the problem, you can always write code for each platform and #if the correct set for the platform but thats much more work to write and maintain.
If Geany only had the number of programmer hours that Gedit does ...
