Description Mantas Mikulėnas (grawity) 2013-02-23 19:59:48 UTC 
Commit 049695b9147627232d2e431ef25b51672ad40091 made full-screen windows automatically minimize when they lose focus. I like this change, but...

I've just had Totem freeze while playing a video, full-screen. The "Program is not responding" dialog popped up, causing Totem to lose focus – and Shell automatically minimized it, along with the attached dialog.

If I Alt+Tab to the Totem window, it returns only for a split-second, and gets minimized again (since the "Not responding" dialog is above it).
