Bug Description
As you can see in the attachment if you start typing something in the awesome bar, its suggestions hide Onboard.
Note: I've enaled Onboard setting "force window to top", so I think that every kind of windows, menubar, tooltip should stay beneath Onboard...
I'm using Oneiric.

Thank you for the bug report, Alessio. This is a know issue with firefox and Onboard (and other on-screen keyboards). If I had a way to fix this I would, but at the moment all I can suggest is to either keep Onboard far enough away from the popup or to disable the pop-up all together:
In firefox go to about:config and set urlbar. autocomplete. enabled = False
browser.
If someone comes up with a creative fix we'll be all over it, but better don't hold your breath. Sorry.
The tool-tip of the option explains that force-to-top is _trying_ to stay above anything. Unfortunately the window manager has the last say. Perhaps we should make that clearer.
