So let me get this straight. The *intended* behavior is that I click on every
single window that demands attention each time it does so that autohide works?
So every Whatsapp, Slack, Signal, Keybase message that comes in I have to
switch to it to hide the panel> Every time FF or other app starts up I need to
stop what I'm doing and click through these things? The whole point of having
autohide is to remove distractions. This creates distractions. Look at the OSX
toolbar. It autohides and doesn't pop up for a millisecond when u have notices.
Same thing with Windows. You can see what notices you have when you unhide it
with the mouse. That's the whole reason for autohiding. At the very least there
should be an option to not show it when apps demand attention. It should be up
to the user not the apps to show the panel. Sometimes apps like FF and PHPStorm
demand attention for no reason just because they're starting up. I just get the
dots and the panel is visible and I have to click on it and get distracted,
and then try to get back to work. It took me two weeks simply to understand
what was happening. At first I thought it was just random (also because the
dots indicating an app wants attention are almost invisible). No desktop
environment I have ever used does what this panel does. It's neither intuitive
nor expected. This UX is beyond bizarre and frankly, unusable.
