[Bug 1423836] [NEW] Nautilus loses focus

 

Public bug reported:

Nautilus fails to regain focus when it opens an other window or dialog,
and that window/dialog is closed.

Tested in Trusty, with default settings.

To reproduce:
 - Open nautilus.
 - Find an image, and open it. Normally it would open in eye of gnome. 
 - Close the image viewer.

Alternative:
 - Select a file in Nautilus 
 - Press shift-del to remove it completely.
 - Nautilus asks "Are you sure you want to permanently delete ...". Press enter to accept. The dialog disappears.

Expected behaviour:
 - The nautilus window should regain focus.

Current behaviour.
 - Nothing seems to be focused anymore (or maybe the desktop is focused, I'm not sure).

Extra info:
 - Bug #14459 is quite similar, but it was marked as invalid. Also it's very old.
 - This might be a bug in unity, and how it handles windows.
