I put together a branch with the patch for easier merging for someone
with rights to commit, and put a build in my ppa of 'metacity -

IMHO this bug should get a high priority, because it is possible for users to
close windows behind the window they currently are seeing simply by pressing
the (X) button - and this might destroy important work.
Here is a screencast of a scenario where this bug occurs:
The upstream status is Priority: High, Severity: critical - there's a
working patch attached but it's not yet committed (neither to metacity
nor mutter).

This minor bug is going to cause me to switch to some other operating

It isn't minor when I click on the close button of a window, and instead

Here is a very simple scenario to reproduce it on my box (lucid) ...

radiance, new wave), using metacity and not compiz of course.
From an empty desktop freshly started, with a gnome terminal launcher in the

noticed today:

Non-maximized window on top ⎽☐☒
I tried to click on the close button of a not-maximized window. I saw
the close button of the maximized window underneath it getting
highlighted
I have exactly the same issue when running in dual-monitor set up in Lucid Lynx.
When I start grabbing one window to position it on another monitor I end up
grabbing completely different window instead.
This happens for me in non-compositing mode (running nouveau) and this is quite
irritating.
It seems like this only happens with certain themes... After switching
my window borders to New Wave it seems like it's not happening
anymore. It also doesn't happen when using compiz, even with themes that
screw up metacity.
The original poster also mentioned that he uses multiple monitors, and

I can confirm this. It started happening in 9.10 for me too, and it's
still happening on my freshly installed Lucid.
It's rather annoying because the lost clicks randomly affect the
applications below the focused window: they may e.g. close an
application by hitting its [X] button, or they may
