Title:
  Dash and launcher appear underneath windows

Status in Unity:
  Fix Released
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “unity” source package in Oneiric:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  main problem:
    unity launcher and dash always hidden (behind displayed application-windows)

  more details and symptoms:
    docky behaves like unity-launcher/dash.
    press "super" button and type "terminal+enter" (nothing displayed) ... a terminal-window starts/pop-up

  conclusion:
    the "input-stack/focus" is o.k.
    the "windows-display-stack/focus" is wrong

  more symptoms:
    After docky-stop and docky-start (restart) the docky-bar shows as "top-level-window" => o.k.
    This is reproducable with firefox windows by moving/maximise/move to desktop XY.
    Sometimes other windows (like terminal-window/google-chrome-window) are hiding the launcher/dash/docky too.
    This problem is reproducable on a T60p with ATI-FireGL video-card.
