Title:
  GtkWindows cannot be raised, show() doesn't do the trick

Status in “gtk+2.0” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When i use "Show Rhythmbox" or "Show Transmission", the app is often
  hidden under the other apps in the same workspace (the app is in the
  background instead of foreground). This is confusing, leading me to
  retry Show a couple of times, then move my windows around and end up
  digging into the window selector menu to find my app.

  The rationale is that "Show" should really "show" the app, hence raise
  it even if it was not initially risen

  In case it matters, I use metacity, not compiz.
