Bug Description

Using the Mir backend, secondary windows of GTK apps open behind the primary window. This is odd because Mir's default behaviour is to put any new surface on top.

e.g. Remmina (after you apply the fix for bug 1444132)

affects: ubuntu → gtk+3.0 (Ubuntu)

I don't see the problem behaviour using miral-shell or mir_demo_server, but maybe I'm just not trying the right apps? (remmina fails with a new error: "GdkMirDisplay does not implement the monitor vfuncs".)

Marking "Incomplete" pending a way to reproduce with the current codebase.
