Title:
"Select windows when the mouse moves over them" is incompatible with
global menu bar

Bug description:
The global menu bar used by Unity is basically incompatible with the
"Select windows when the mouse moves over them" option in "System" >
"Preferences" > "Windows" (gnome-window-properties). This is because
moving the mouse to the menu bar will often move it over another
window, changing the window focus.
So, whenever Unity is being used with the global menu bar:
* the "Window Selection" section of the "Window Preferences" window should be hidden
* the "Select windows when the mouse moves over them" option should be treated as if it was off.
