Description Frédéric van der Essen 2012-03-05 16:21:25 UTC 
If I close an alert in chromium, some random opened window will be moved in front of chromium. In some sessions it never happens, in other it happens all the time. I never could figure what caused this behaviour. It also happens in Inkscape with the toolboxes, etc.

My configuration is the following:
Gnome 3.2.2.1 on Ubuntu 11.10, Dual screen configuration with the main on the right.
