+1 * 1000 It's *so* annoying trying to drag a message from thunderbird inbox window (which I normally have maximized in its own workspace) into a compose window attachment when every time I click the inbox window it jumps to the front and obscures my compose window. I have to carefully size the two windows and place them in a particular configuration before I can perform the operation. Simply clicking in a window should not raise it. It should not raise unless I tell it to raise (title bar left-click and front key are reasonable commands for this). At minimum this ought to be an available option, perhaps even default behavior for Window Preference "Select when mouse moves over them" since this likely indicates that people want to work with partially-obscured windows. Also, why isn't "Lower" an available titlebar right-click menu option? -Bob
