In unity menubar, middle-click followed by left-click is interpreted as double-click

[Guy Hillyer]

This happens to me frequently in unity. I have two app windows maximized and a few smaller windows from a third app. I'm looking at one of the maximized apps, which is on top, and I want to raise the other maximized app. So I bury the top app window using middle-click on the menubar, then I see that the 2nd maximized app window is partially obscured by the third app's small windows, so I left click on the title bar to bring the 2nd app window to the top. Unity seems to interpret this sequence of actions as a double-left-click, and un-maximizes the 2nd app window. Is there any way to avoid this behavior? I don't think middle-click, left-click should qualify as a double-click.

If it matters, the two maximized windows belong to Firefox and Thunderbird, and the third app with the smaller windows is Tomboy Notes.

Thanks for reading.

I used "title bar" and "menubar" interchangeably in this report. I meant in both cases the bar at the top of the screen that belongs to Unity.
