Bug Description

Please refer to the attached screen shots.

Screen shot 1 shows a maximised Firefox window prior to minimising.

Screen shot 2 shows a maximised text editor, previously behind Firefox before it was minimised by means of the clickable Minimise button. It also shows a Firefox menu, despite the text editor appearing to have focus. Note that the minimised Firefox window still continues to receive keyboard events.

Perhaps also of interest: clicking the Firefox launcher item does not restore the window. It is necessary to Alt+Tab a couple of times instead.
