AWN's Auto-Hide Function

Bug Description

When using AWN in a dual screen system with auto-hide enabled, when the user is working on the secondary desktop, the dock becomes active again. Why? Auto-hide means it should be hidden unless the user prompts the dock for attention. Intelli-hide on the other hand makes sense for this application.

Suggestion: Incorporate "Auto-Hide" and "Intelli-Hide" functions in the menu. Intelli-hide meaning it would hide only if the window on the main screen is maximized over the area of thed ock, and Auto-Hide meaning it would hide unless the user moves the mouse to the edge of the screen to prompt it to display itself on the screen.

Hi there. I recently heard that AWN's development kicked into gear again (awesome news!). I realized AWN doesn't have an actual auto hide feature, something that I really enjoy as I want the dock out of my way when I'm not using it. I noticed it was recently updated that the milestone was set to none. Is this feature simply not going to be integrated? It would be fantastic if it would be... Thanks for your time!

It's just that 0.4.2 has been released. The feature will still be integrated when I have time :)
