I say it's more likely GNOME/Enlightenment because GnuCash AFAIK, 
doensn't do anything to manage workspaces.  That's the job of the 
Window Manager.  It's actually more likely it's just an Enlightenment 
issue, separate from GNOME, which should be easily verified.  Just 
switch to a different wm under GNOME and see if the problem persists.

Also, try FVWM under GNOME.  If it still happens with FVWM under 
GNOME, then the problemm is GNOME, if not, then Enlightenment.  If it 
happens with all window managers you try under GNOME, try a few 
outside of GNOME.  If the problem persists there, then it's probable 
GnuCash (though I'd be quite surprised, since as I said, I'm using 
FVWM outside of GNOME, and not having that problem).

Oh, another thing that could be happening is that you have some 
config option in E turned on to map GnuCash to a certain virtual 
workspace.  It could be set to recognize a certain X resource name 
and send all instances of that resource name to a specific 
v-workspace.

Hope that helps some.
