[Bug 802527] [NEW] Stacking problem when switching between apps with multiple windows

 

Public bug reported:

To reproduce (in Unity):

1) Open 2 Terminals.  Have them slightly overlap.  Note which terminal is on top (terminal A) and which one is partly hidden (terminal B).
2) Switch to a different app.
3) Click back on the Terminal launcher.

What happens:
The terminals will both be raised, but terminal A will now be behind terminal B.  It will still have focus though.

what should happen:
Terminal A should still be on top.

Note that the apps must all be on the same workspace to trigger this
bug.
