Details:

infodialog's gtk_window_new call in src/utils.c has "NULL" as first
parameter: that means that the dialog isn't bound a toplevel window, and if
for instance I change workspace (before it appears, which is absolutely
possible for instance in the case of pdf generation), I may get it floating
somewhere (where it may as well remain until I notice it), and it may as well
hide under another window. This is really ugly and unusable.

I'm attaching a simple patch, which registers its parent as the main Denemo
window. It's possibly not optimal (maybe some infodialogs stem from seconday
windows and should be bound to that), but it's far better than before.

The patch is again git (though I tested the modification against 0.8.6 only,
but there should be no problem against git too).
