This has to be a duplicate of another bug already reported, but I
couldn't find one that addresses the situation after an hour of
searching.

In Oneiric, I find that the focus-and-raise window behavior  under Unity
3D (I have version 4.24.0-0ubuntu2b1) has some issues, particularly when
minimizing/closing a window that lies on top of another one.  It seems
that the window that is immediately below the one I am dismissing is
automatically raised to the front, even if there is another window that
is in front of it.

For example:
 (1) Begin with windows arranged as I have shown in attached screenshot "allopen1.png".
 (2) Minimize the Pidgin window.  The result is shown in attached screenshot "pidginmin1.png".
 Notice that the Firefox window that was immediately below the Pidgin window was raised, even though there was a Gedit window open on top of it (but not overlapping with Pidgin) to the right.  I would expect that the Gedit window should still stay on top.

Another example:
 (1) Begin with windows arranged as shown in "allopen2.png".
 (2) Now minimize the Gedit window.  Result is in "geditmin2.png".
 This time BOTH the "underneath" windows are raised (?!).  Instead, I'd expect that the Gedit window should be minimized, and nothing further should happen.
