First of all, this is _not_ a bug within compiz, I am using metacity. You can indeed reproduce the bug with the default ubuntu 9.04 iso _without modifications_ to it. Just burn the standard cd, boot it, fire up ubuntu. Once your logged in, press alt+f2, enter firefox. hit enter. Firefox will be started within a window which has the title "Welcome to Ubuntu 9.04 - Mozilla Firefox". Then right-click onto that exact place, the top bar colored in orange. In the context menu, check "Always on top". If you now hit alt+f2 again, the "run application" dialog will _not_ get focus( its titlebar stays white). This happens even if you minimize firefox. This is in my opinion definitely a papercut, because users would expect to be able to enter a command in a "run application" window without clicking it to get it focused first. Concerning Karmic: Afaik there are so far only release candidates of this ubuntu version. I am however a user and not an active developer. Thus I am not using release candidates.
