Interesting.
Well, as far as GNOME goes, a colleague of mine achieved this, so I assumed it
was built in as a capability. It didn't exist in GNOME when I was using Ubuntu
4.10 at one of my jobs.
As for KDE, it existed in version 3.1 and probably earlier versions as well.
The GUI was a bit complex compared to the layout that you find in 3.5.x.
Still, it's built into vanilla KDE and works fantastically.
