Bug#459449: gamine: should not change of workspace

Subject: gamine: should not change of workspace
Package: gamine
Version: 0.0.1-2
Severity: normal

When using Gamine, a young child is doing large gestures.
If the X environment is setup with several workspaces and wrap workspaces
when the pointer reaches a screen edge, then the mouse pointer goes out
from the current workspace where Gamine is running. And the child is a bit
lost.

Would it be possible to unactivate automatically the wrap workspace option
when Gamine is launched ? A bit like video viewer that stop the
screensaver to run.

I know that the workaround is to unactivate this setting manually before
the child is playing. It just would be easier / quicker (for parents).

Regards,

lerouge
