Public bug reported:
I use emesene and maximize the chat window. When I receive a new message
and click on its entry on the Messaging Menu, its window pops up as
expected, but with one catch: sometimes it opens unfocused.
That means that, if there is another maximized window below it, like
Firefox, and this maximized window is the one in focus, the window
controls, titlebar and menubar shown in the panel are actually of this
other window. I lost count of how many times I accidentally closed
Firefox when I actually intended to close the emesene chat window.
This only happens in Unity because in a normal desktop, without the
titlebar/panel merging, the window controls will obey the stacking
order, regardless of which window is focused.
This should also happen in Unity: the controls shown in the panel should
be based on focus when non-maximized windows are involved, but should be
based on stacking order if only maximized windows are involved.
