2006-05-01 19:50:15 Sebastien Bacher metacity: statusexplanation Thanks for your bug. That's not likely to be a window manager but rather an application bug or a feature. Could you describe what you do exactly and what happens and what you would expect? The feature is used so if you are typing a password or some text to an application a new window doesn't steal your keyboard and make you type them to the wrong place. A window get placed to the foreground if the window is runned due to an user action (clicked on an icon by example) and you don't act to an another program during the startup. If you are typing an email, start openoffice which takes 10 seconds to startup and switching back to your email during those 10 secondes the window will open behind your mailer to not stop what you are doing, that's a feature
