Kwin's "automatically group similar windows" causes windows to be opened in other desktop.



Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
Have tabbing and automatically group similar windows enabled open couple instances of Dolphin. 

They get grouped.

Then switch to any other desktop.

Try to open one more Dolphin window.

It gets opened, but in wrong desktop.

Actual Results:  
Newly opened window gets sent to other desktop. Looks like nothing had happened, while you open yet another instance of same app trying to get things done.

Expected Results:  
Look for similar group only in the same current desktop

Thank you
