  [ Chris Townsend ]
  * Fix issue where windows that are in Show Desktop mode are selected
    for spread have a blank preview. This fix will Fade Out the window
    for Spread and Fade In the window again when Spread exits if that
    window is not chosen. (LP: #1104236)

  * ForceQuitDialog: add a new "sheet style" dialog that is shown when a
    window hangs Listen to compiz toolkit events and prompt a dialog
    that allows to force-quit an hanging application. (LP: #698031)

Bug description:
  This looks like a regression.  Bug 877778 describes what we now have
  in current trunk again.

  STR:

  1. Open 2 application windows, e.g. gnome-terminal
  2. Alt-tab to show desktop
  3. Click  on gnome-terminal icon with 2 pips on the launcher

  Expected results:
  Two windows are displayed in spread.

  Actual results:
  One window is displayed in spread with another one still being there, the outline appears on hover but the window itself is not displayed.

  ADDITION: 

  Furthermore "Show desktop" shows desktop on all workspaces which is not desired behavior. This makes the issue even worse, because you can only use the launcher and alt-tab to navigate between the windows which results in a big usability bug.
