Yes, this is the right thing to do.

As I recall, gmc is not session aware.  That would be why it doesn't
come back.

If you can reproduce the problem with the property dialogs, I'd be
interested in getting more details.  It could be a bug in the property
programs, or a bug in the session manager.  Either way it ought to be
fixed, not worked around.
