Removing the patch to metacity (see above) works only if you are not using compiz. The same annoying behavior now effects compiz (intrepid). I really don't understand the logic here. We have a blinking notification saying "click here! click me!" so you do, and seemingly nothing happens. For tomboy, you click the always present tomboy icon, select a note, and expect it to appear, always, period. This is enough to make newbies think Linux is totally broken and go back to Windows. *** sigh ***
