Description Aidan Delaney 2005-02-20 20:53:45 UTC
Version details: ubuntu universe package
Distribution/Version: ubuntu hoary

1) Open more than nine folders using spatial Nautilus
2) Notice that all nine folders now become a "group" in the window list.  I.e.
there is only one window list entry for all nine nautilus windows.
3) Open another application such as epiphany and maximize it.
5) With epiphany in the foreground choose any of the nautilus windows from the
popup on the window list.
6) Notice that the nautilus window becomes the foremost nautilus window but does
not appear on top of the epiphany window.  It is still behind the epiphany
window and occluded by it.

I am unsure wheather this is a gnome-panel or metacity bug.  You people will
know though :)

It's a metacity bug.  Well, kind of two metacity bugs and a libwnck one, but
mainly a Metacity bug.  One which I'm about to commit some patches for too.  :-)
