[Bug 951938] Re: Middle-clicking the title bars causing window flickering.

 

** Description changed:

  Middle-clicking title bars is supposed to send windows to the background
  (I believe). This does not behave as well as it should.
  
  Middle-clicking the title bar of a window that is not on top makes it
  briefly appear before it is sent to the background, causing a flicker.
+ 
+ It also so don't work properly with minimized windows in some
+ circumstances.  Middle-clicking a window cause it to go to the back
+ briefly, before returning to the front.
+ 
+ Steps to reproduce:
+ 
+ 1. Login
+ 2. Open 3 Nautilus windows (non-maximized).
+ 3. Middle-clicking the top-most window's title bar should send it to the background as expected.
+ 4. Middle-clicking the title bar of lower windows will briefly bring them to the top before they go to the background. (Bug)
+ 5. Minimize one of the windows.
+ 6. Middle-clicking the top-most window's title bar will send it to the background briefly before returning it to the top. (Bug)
