Title: can't focus Contact List while a conversation window is open Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: If I have a conversation window open in Empathy, it is not possible to get the contact list back in focus - even if I move the contact list to another workspace. If I try to use Alt-Tab instead of the mouse, the contact list does not even show up as a selection choice. I can however click on the contact list to open another conversation or change my status. This wouldn't be a big deal except that I'm running 11.04 with Unity. And of course, in Unity, it is not possible to access the menus for a program unless a window is in focus, thanks to the global menu. This means that it is impossible to change a setting in Empathy without closing an open conversation - the conversation window does have an entry for Edit->Preferences; only the Contact List has this.
