Yes, the team responsible for that code has indicated the same thing to me.
A fix could be made in libXplugin, but it would need to be a rather large architectural change such that libXpluin would need to record all surface layer odering (right now, it just passes on the request from X11 to OS X and doesn't maintain the state). This would be a huge effort and not worth the engineering effort. If anyone actually had such time to devote to a solution, it would be better spent working on libxcwm+XtoQ or an AppKit based Wayland compositor (+XWayland). --Jeremy > On Jun 6, 2016, at 22:19, César <[email protected]> wrote: > > I've got an update from the Apple bug reporter stating that this issue won't > be fixed.
