** Description changed:

- Currently, when user have two windows open: maximized and unmaximized
- one, and if unmaximized one is focused, in order to close the maximized
- window, user needs to move the mouse to the upper part of the screen and
- click, or click on maximized window itself. Since menu is not visible,
- long menus force user to move his mouse further to the right.
+ Scenario: A user has two windows open: one maximized and one unmaximized
+ (the unmaximized being focused). In order to close the maximized window,
+ user needs to move the mouse to the menubar and click, or click on
+ maximized window itself. However, one cannot focus the maximized window
+ by clicking on the area where maximized windows usually house the window
+ control buttons (the top left).
  
- Option is to focus maximized window by clicking on the upper-left part
- of the screen. This has its advantages; single click will focus
- maximized window in the background, double-click will allow user to
- close. In order to minimize this window, user won't have to move his
- mouse far. This can improve productivity in Unity environment.
+ Please make it so that the maximized window underneath will be focused
+ so that a user may easily close/minimize/demaximize the window without
+ much further movement needed. A demonstration of the maximized window
+ NOT being focused may be viewed here (please excuse the jittery mouse, I
+ was using a tablet).

** Summary changed:

- Focus maximized window by clicking on window title
+ Focus a maximized window underneath non-maximized windows byclicking on window title

** Summary changed:

- Focus a maximized window underneath non-maximized windows byclicking on window title
+ Focus a maximized window underneath non-maximized windows by clicking on the application title in the menubar (top-left)
