[Bug 904063] [NEW] Problem with multiple class=Desktop windows and Wallpaper plugin/Cube transperancy

 

Public bug reported:

Hi, im not sure if this is really bug. I have two windows with the class
"Desktop", nautilus and conky. I use the "wallpaper" plugin.

When I change the cube transparency, for example by initiating workspace switching, the window that is currently at the top stays visible, but the other one is "moved" behind the wallpaper provided by the wallpaper plugin. This means that when I switch to a workspace one of them will disappear and reappear when the animation is completed. I patched nautilus  to allow a transparent background, otherwise this combination of plugins/applications won't be possible but this I think the correct behaviour should be to keep all windows with the Desktop class on top of the wallpaper and not only one. Here are some images that illustrate the problem:
