That's funny, I've only ever made sticky rice in a pan. My rice cooker is a dead simple one I got in a Japanese grocery store in Seattle 30 years ago, the switch says "cook" and "warm" period. If you want on, plug it in, if you want off, unplug it. I don't eat much rice anymore, I use it mostly to cook oatmeal and lentils.
I've been known to cook pretty much anything in it.
Roger Ebert can too. 
I just recently found out about his obsession with them, and he can't eat. Go figure.
*Staying with the theme of unimportant answers*
ETA: I'm talking about "sticky rice" for sushi or fruit deserts. If your talking wallpaper paste just use short grain brown rice, add too much water and cook it too long. My mother has this down to a science.
