Bug Description

With the window list entry gone it's impossible to gain focus of the preview unless you do "alt+tab" or use the "scale plugin" from compiz.
I think the preview should stay on top to avoid this.

For me it's better that the window doesn't appear on the taskbar but I understand that it's better for some users to have the entry. Maybe find some way to give the user the option?
Btw, I look into this in Mac OS X and the window it's always on top and if you select another file or folder the preview changes for that file or folder.

Woo, I don't have a mac so I don't know how works there, but, I like that if you preview another file the preview changes to this one..

I'll do a referendum about it, and see what people thinks!!

Thanks!
