Probably the main window is hidden on purpose, but I find it annoying that I can not drag the app window between workspaces and that it is invisible when using multi-task view.

This looks like it's because the main window is a dialog, which is discouraged by GTK. elementary OS does not show dialogs in the Multitasking View.

Interesting. Maybe related to the merged branch called tomato-as-dialog.

Correct. Instead of a dialog, Tomato should use the .flat style class on the decoration to style it similarly to a dialog. This is what several small apps, including Dippi and Palette do.

I created a draft PR (#64) to change the MainWindow to be a Gtk.Window instead of a Gtk.Dialog.

I'm not fluent on Vala so I'm not sure about which is the best approach to do this, please feel free to comment in my draft PR.
