Which awesome version are you running? The commit that is referenced from the bug didn't find its way into a release, but the equivalent code from ed66fda1f1d390db18383810c6f91e5aec6ebf16 is part of v3.5.2. Also, you are refering to the wrong bug. The above bug is only about "ssh-askpass is below all other windows". You are looking for FS#573: https://awesome.naquadah.org/bugs/index.php?do=details&task_id=573 This bug was reported and fixed in 2009. So unless you are running something as old as 3.4.0 (yes, I did look this up), you shouldn't hit this bug... > The bug has no found its way from the git version to the release version.

Yeah, upgrade to the latest release. If you can't do that for some reason (why?), then nope, your config won't help.
