Title:
  Wrong application (with window "Always OnTop") takes focus after
  closing a dialog

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 12.04

  Steps to reproduce:

  1) start two programs, e.g. gnome-terminal and nautilus
  2) set one of the two windows to "Always On Top"
  3) switch to the other application and open a dialog there.
  4) close the dialog
  5) Now the application with the setting "Always On Top" has focus instead of the other application

  Several times I closed the wrong application because of this or
  started the wrong action in the wrong application (I often use
  keyboard shortcuts instead of using the mouse), which can be pretty
  annoying or even result in data loss.

  In order to exclude any side effect of my current installed system I
  tested this also with an unmodified "Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 64 bit" image
  booted from USB Stick. It is the same there.

  Edit: I added the Apport Debug Information from the system booted from
  USB stick, so it says "No upgrade log present (probably fresh
  install)", but the error is the same with my current system, which is
  up-to-date.

  This is my first bug report to Ubuntu and I am not sure if you need more information?
