Title:
  xwit cannot de-iconify window

Status in Unity:
  Triaged
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  The xwit command (from package xwit) provides a simple command-line
  interface for de-iconifying and raising an X window.  However, it
  doesn't work for iconified windows in Unity.  (It does work with other
  window managers, even Unity 2D.)  xwit simply calls XMapRaised(3) on
  the specified window.

  Steps to reproduce:

  1)  Install the xwit package.
  2)  Open a terminal, and get its windowid with "echo $WINDOWID".  Record this number.
  3)  Minimize the terminal window.
  4)  Open a second terminal window instance.  Run "xwit -id <windowid>"

  Expected behavior:  The minimized terminal window should be de-iconified and raised.
  Actual behavior:  Nothing happens in Unity.  (But this does work in Unity 2D and most others.)

  This is on Ubuntu 12.04 with the following package versions:

  unity 5.16.0-0ubuntu1
  compiz 1:0.9.7.8-0ubuntu1.4
  xwit 3.4-14
