Public bug reported:

On Dapper I try to use Citrix ICAclient for Windows remote desktop. I
use version 9.15 (german) from this link.

http://citrix.com/English/SS/downloads/details.asp?dID=2755&downloadID=3323&pID=186

When the application connects it wants to display the Windows desktop
fullscreen, but the gnome-panels stay on top.  Other reports of the same
problem involve acroread and blender.

Workarounds:

i) activate "auto-hide" on the panels

   this is ok, but the remote desktop appears twice

ii) activate fullscreen mode for this app by hand via a
    hot-key combination

iii) replace metacity by sawfish

    This works fine, I get one instance of the remote
    desktop in fullscreen.

    I got the hint from

http://gnomesupport.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=11223

and this gnome bug report:

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=343115

The gnome bug report is for metacity 2.14.3 while dapper has 2.14.5.
The bug report has a patch which solves the problem.  Perhaps it is
already fixed in edgy so we could backport?
