That is an accurate observation, and something I am really unfond of where spaces is concerned, but I was really replying based on the following, which looks very much like the problem I was addressing. My apologies if I have made a mistaken assumption.

I've just tried it with Camino and X11, and I get the new window in
the current Space, not the Space the first window of the app was
opened in.

No, I think you missed the point. What the OP wants is:
* open a window
* minimize it into a Dock item
* switch to some other Space
* click on Dock item
* window re-opens into current Space
Some brief testing here says that it re-opens into its original space,
just as the OP complains (and auto-swoosh off doesn't fix it).
Maybe the Spaces dudes have some focus-group surveys saying that that's
the right thing, but if I were in their focus group I'd have disagreed
loudly,
