Description Anders Kaseorg 2017-10-10 06:21:37 UTC 
I have three applications A, B, C open with A half-maximised on the left, B half-maximized on the right, and C in normal state.  I’ve focused C to raise it above B.  Now if I focus A, gnome-shell raises B above C!  This makes it much harder than necessary to quickly switch between A and C.  B should be left below C if I didn’t focus it.

(I’m using gnome-shell 3.26.1-0ubuntu1 on Ubuntu 17.10.)

That's intentional, see commit e76a0f564c1e0.
