Bug Description
Binary package hint: deskbar-applet
Pressing the keyboard shortcut assigned to deskbar-applet doesn't give it focus like it should when a window is focused.
To reproduce:
1. Open a window (eg, gnome-terminal).
2. Click on it to give it focus.
3. Press the deskbar-applet shortcut key.
Result: The applet will appear, but any keyboard events will go into the window from (1), NOT deskbar.
This is seen while using deskbar 2.18.1 on Feisty while running beryl 0.2.1 from the http://

You just change your level of Focus Stealing Prevention in Beryl to "None." It worked for me, but worry that it may have some unwanted focus-stealing consequences in other applications.
