[Bug 955355] [NEW] Compiz does not allow focusing on the desktop with click-to-focus disabled

 

Public bug reported:

With click-to-focus disabled (follow focus), compiz does not allow
focusing on the desktop with any non-minimized windows present.  If
click-to-focus is enabled, then compiz behaves as expected.

Steps to reproduce:

- disable click-to-focus in compiz
- open at least one application
- try to rename a file on the desktop

At this point the desktop will not receive focus, and typing will go
into the last focused window, not the desktop (for file rename).

lsb_release info:
  Ubuntu precise (development branch) 12.04

compiz version:
  1:0.9.7.0+bzr3035-0ubuntu1
