It's a window manager feature rather than a Gnome feature, I think. I
do this with sawfish (under Gnome) by configuring "Matched Windows" and
specifying which desktop to start the window on.

The difference between a crazy person and an intelligent one is that
the crazy one doesn't realize what makes sense in the world. The goal
of good engineering is not to ask "what if?", but to ask "how do I
make this work as well as possible".
