Bug Description
At what seems like random times, tasks in the taskbar will turn bold and begin
blinking. When this happens, it is no longer possible to use Alt-Tab to switch
away from the currently focused window. A mouse click to focus the blinking
application is required.
I am not certain if I have selected the correct package as this problem persists
even when I remove the taskbar and use the Window Selector applet (the
applications turn bold in that list as well).

Thanks for your bug. This animation is a notice that a window require your
attention (ie: a message coming on an IM). It doesn't break alt-tab for me and
that's the first bug we get about it though. What version of Ubuntu do you use?
With what application do you have this issue?
