Description Axel Lewenhaupt 2009-12-07 15:45:49 UTC 
If you have enabled "always group windows" in the windows list applet. If you open nautilus and another random program and then drag a folder/document from the nautilus window over the program item in the window list applet it will get focus and maximize.

The problem is if you you open 2 of the same program so they collapse into one item in the window list then there is no way to maximize/focus any of the windows that are collapsed.

Suggestion how to fix:
While hovering over a collapsed item: display the left click menu (show all the collapsed items in a menu, like when you left click it normally) and make it possible to hover over those items to maximize/focus a window.

OS: Ubuntu 9.10 with gnome 2.28
