Bug Description

Binary package hint: unity-2d

For example, I have a Chromium window, with downloaded files, and under the Chromium window a Nautilus window where I want to drop the file I'm dragging from downloads in Chromium.
Formely, in GNOME, to get this I can drag the file from chromium, move the cursor to the aplication on the taskbar, and then, the window (nautilus in my case) rises and now I can drop the file I'm dragging from chromium into the nautilus window.
With Unity, I can't do this, because when I move the cursor to the Launcher, it doesn't change the window.
