Not sure why this was closed --- the behavior still exists. Often, after
launching an application from the Unity launcher, the new window fails
to take the focus. I'm guessing this is related to the window manager's
focus stealing prevention feature (which is at its default setting), but
presumably the launcher should be able to coordinate with the window
manager so that newly launched windows do get the focus. It seems this
doesn't currently work reliably.
