[Launchpad Bug Tracker <1008508@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Clicking on the unity panel should never change which window is
focussed. However if you have a small window in front of a maximized
window, then clicking on the blank panel area (to the right of the
smaller window's menus) causes the maximized window behind it to be
raised. This is clearly wrong, because the panel has the title for the
smaller window at the time. So clicking on the panel should never cause
a different window to be raised.


ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION:
When I switch desktops (no matter if using hotkeys or using unity desktop switcher at the launcher) and a maximized window exists on the desktop that gets the focus, that window is pushed to the foreground/front even if another window was the active one when I left that desktop the last time.

Steps to reproduce:

a) start two applications (e.g. LibreOffice and Nautilus, Firefox and Nautilus or whatever).
b) Maximize one of those windows.
c) Switch to the non-maximized one (bring it to the front).
d) Switch desktop.
e) Switch back to first desktop.

Actual effect: Maximized windows is put to front

Desired effect: Show desktop in exactly the way as it was before
switching desktop.

Reason: User in first reaction is missing the window he/she was using
before.
