Title:
  Alt-Tab, Keyboard shortcuts - ALT-TAB hides application while showing
  a messagebox

Status in Ayatana Design:
  Fix Committed
Status in Unity:
  Triaged
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  for example using calibre (an e-book manager).

  Pre condition:
  - Install Calibre (ebook manager)
  - use a mounted drive to set calibre's library location
  - Unmount the drive where calibre looks for its ebook library.

  Test case:
  - Open an application, eg firefox.
  - Open calibre (Calibre gives an error on startup because the drive is not mounted)
  - Swith to an other application using alt-tab
  - Switch back to caliber.

  Expected behaviour: 
  - Calibre is shown

  Current behaviour:
  - Calibre is not present in the alt-tab menu (you can not swith back to caliber)

  Extra information:
  Added an screenshot for calibre giving the error message.
  Starting calibre again is not possible because calibre is still running (but not vissible using alt-tab).
  This behaviour is true for other applications as well.
