Binary package hint: unity

When you are in the workspace switcher mode of Unity (on Natty) it is possible to click on the menus shown in the top panel by AppMenu. When you click on such a menu, on the panel the texture is changed to make it look like the menu is open.

However, any possibly open menu that should be located underneath the menu's name is not shown; it seems to be hidden underneath the black of the workspace switcher.

One possible solution could be to make Unity's launcher and panel non-interactive when the user is in the work-space switcher. However, personally I would prefer to keep the interface sensitive—as to prevent user confusion because of a seemingly frozen interface that is still there—but instead make everything work, despite the workspace switcher being displayed instead of the desktop, or open windows.
