No option to disable raise on click

[David Given]

Binary package hint: metacity

The metacity configuration GUI has an option to enable focus-follows-mouse mode, but there is no option to disable raise-on-click. As the whole point of focus-follows-mouse is to avoid having to raise windows when interacting with them, this is a major flaw. Currently I have to use gconf to make focus-follows-mouse useable.

Thanks for the report, it has been some time without any response or feedback in this bug report and we are wondering if this is still an issue for you with the latest release of Ubuntu the Natty Narwhal, May you please test with that version and comment back if you're still having or not the issue? Please have a look at http://www.ubuntu.com/download to know how to install that version. Thanks in advance and sorry for the late response.

Yes, this is still extant in Narwhal.
