Title:
  window set as "always on top" receives focus after workspace switch

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

Bug description:
   - open two windows
   - set the first window to "Always On Top"
   - click/select the second window, giving it focus
   - switch to another virtual desktop
   - switch back to the virtual desktop containing the windows

  Focus has now changed to the first window, although I expect the second window to continue to have focus.
  This has tripped me up many times where I accidentally entered text in the wrong window.

  This appears to be a new bug in Ubuntu 12.04, at least, I never encountered it in 11.10.
  This bug does not occur when using Unity2D.

  Confirmed on multiple machines:
   - desktop with AMD graphics using fglrx driver
   - laptop with integrated Intel graphics

  I am not sure if this is a compiz or unity issue.
