I've now had a chance to check the situation and the results are below.
Unless I'm missing something, the new version of bamfdaemon is not
working for me. I'm not sure how to start and stop a daemon, so I have
been logging out and back in (but do note the exception where the
working version was activated by a single click on the launcher, not
requiring a logout).


With old (working) bamfdaemon:

Output from 'ps aux | grep bamfdaemon':
peter     3698  0.0  0.3 333248 11580 ?        Sl   Dec14   0:01 
/usr/lib/bamf/bamfdaemon
peter    12574  0.0  0.0  13456   896 pts/0    S+   09:05   0:00 grep 
--color=auto bamfdaemon

Functionality:
Launcher, app-switcher, window buttons and title all working normally


With new (non-working) bamfdaemon (after logout-login):

Output from 'ps aux | grep bamfdaemon':
peter    13479  0.0  0.0  13452   896 pts/1    S+   09:08   0:00 grep 
--color=auto bamfdaemon

Functionality:
App-switcher shows only desktop, but does manage to switch between desktop and 
last-viewed application only
The following are invisible: Global menus, window titles, window buttons
Newly opened applications do not appear in Launcher, and any applications 
permanently 'pinned' to launcher are not 'ticked' when running


Oddly enough, after reinstating the old (working) bamfdaemon, it only required 
a click on the launcher to restore the correct behaviour (i.e. no need to 
logout-login). Conversely, after pasting in the new (non-working) bamfdaemon, 
things continued to function correctly UNTIL I had logged out and back in. Is 
this a clue to why the new version is not functioning?

Hope that is of some use.

PS: What would be the commands to stop/start/restart this daemon?
