[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1342216] [NEW] Ubuntu Unity Plugin Switcher does not respect Skip pager from Window Rule
Public bug reported: Defining a Skip taskbar or Skip pager rule in Window Rules plugin does not reflect in the Ubuntu Unity Plugin Switcher, as the window still appears in the switcher. This integration is expected, as other plugins respect this rule. Among other are: - Scale - with Skip pager rule ; - Application Switcher - with Skip taskbar rule; - Static Application Switcher - with Skip taskbar rule. How to reproduce: 1. Enable Window Rules plugin 2. Write: class=Firefox in the Skip taskbar rule 3. Open Firefox browser 4. Press Alt+Tab to see that Firefox still appears in Switcher 5. Try Scale plugin or any other of the mentioned above to see that Firefox window is ignored Although this might not be relevant for firefox (the example above), it might be for other use cases, such as embedded windows, Hangouts app in google chrome, etc..
