Bug Description

1. my avant is set to intellihide.
2. now its hidden
3. now i am in any other window
4. now due to some reason my mouse pointer is inside the area of space covered by avant when it is not hidden that is when it is brought to front. as you can see in image number 1.
5. now suddenly there is update manager window appears
6. avant dock comes up and tells me about appearing of new window
7 now i press keyboard shortcut alt tab to go to that new window of update manager. Note that i do not use my mouse or I do not even touch it . Mouse pointer is still at the same position explained in step number 4
8 now after going to update manager windows either do update or close this window as per my wish. after that avant sits there only in front. avant do not go and hide. As you can see in image number 2. it does due to that mouse pointer thing i explained in step number 4

Suggestion: make avant recognize that if it is called in front using keyboard shortcut then after completing the task of switching to that new window (in above example the new window is update manager) the avant dock should auto hide irrespective of the mouse pointer position.
I am using ubuntu 11.10 (64 bit) with gnome 3.
Thank you.
