Comment 11 for bug 788607

Yes, I am still seeing it, with
gconftool --set --type bool /apps/metacity/general/compositing_manager true
then if I slide a terminal window over another window, then select the underneath window the terminal window stays on top. It is not selectable however, mouse and keyboard go through to the underlying window.
gconftool --set --type bool /apps/metacity/general/compositing_manager false
removes the problem (but introduces others).

I reported previously that I only see the problem when I have dual monitors (extended mode). In fact it only happens if the virtual desktop is >2048 wide (or thereabouts). If I configure both displays as 1024x768 it is ok, but with greater resolution I see the issue.
