Comment 14 for bug 58179

I am having this issue in 10.10.

This was reported like 5 years ago!
I can't wait to get away from some GNOME development with Unity for reasons like this.

I use hidden panels with Full screen VirtualBox windows.

This is nearly a showstopper and is preventing me from using linux on our security technician's computers. (too hard for them to understand why a panel wont go away) (they simply see Ubuntu / Linux as broken)

Figure it out GNOME.
