Comment 7 for bug 790565

Here's what i spotted after juggling with Polly and some other Windows for a while, i don't know if it's really helpful at this point but i'll write it nevertheless:

It does *seem* to be connected to whatever Events get fired right after you closed another Window AND Polly is the Window that should receive focus in the Stack of open Windows.

Recreate:
Open Polly and f.e. a File Browser, the File Browser must have focus, close the File Browser, Polly *should* be the focused Window now but the Links will fail. Clicking around in Polly does nothing, Links still fail. Works in any combination of Polly + Some Window.

Minimizing and re-opening Polly (or switching back and forth between Windows in Alt Tab) fixes the Links.

Another Scenario:
Open Polly, Chrome and another Window, Polly is the bottom Window, next is Chrome and then f.e. Audio Settings, close Audio Settings, Chrome receives Focus, you have to manually focus (or Alt Tab) to Polly and all Links should be fine, so it really seems to be just the case if Polly is the Window that should receive Auto-Focus.

I tested this just in Oneiric with Unity, for the sake of Information ^^ Now I'll go play with it in Gnome Shell (if it's working again) and Unity 2D.
