Public bug reported:

When there are multiple instances open from the same program and you
close one instance from that group, the focus is not set to the next
instance in that group. It is not clear what the rules of resetting the
focus are, but it is not expected behaviour that focus is set to a
'random' app.

Use case 1:
- a user has multiple instances open of EOG (non-tabs)
- he wants to close all those instances by clicking on the close-button on top 
one by one
- everytime he closes an  instance, he has to switch (by the launcher or 
otherwise) to the next instance he likes to close which is very 
counterproductive

Use case 2:
- a user has Firefox open and the separate download-window
- he closes the download window and expects to return to Firefox
- this is however not the case, so he is somewhere lost
