When I go to launch a new Mousepad, it gets stuffed in a currently

Moving said window into the current workspace from where I had it. grumble.

Where is the behavior controlled?  I tend to have a dozen Mousepads open
with some work I am doing noted (like openSSL work).  F38 Xfce did it
right.  F41 is not and I don't see where this is controlled.

I tried launching a new Firefox instance and than created a new window
rather than a new tab in the then current window.  So some apps get this
as I want....

So you will now you have to edit the laucher or command line used.

So now just to find the admin app that controls launching apps.

Grumble.  Just spent 10min and it is not "jumping out at me"...
