Bug Description
When i use "Show Rhythmbox" or "Show Transmission", the app is often hidden under the other apps in the same workspace (the app is in the background instead of foreground). This is confusing, leading me to retry Show a couple of times, then move my windows around and end up digging into the window selector menu to find my app.
The rationale is that "Show" should really "show" the app, hence raise it even if it was not initially risen
In case it matters, I use metacity, not compiz.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug. However, this is an issue with the way GTK+ has defined the show() function that's used to make the windows appear again after they had been hidden.
