Public bug reported:
The global menu bar used by Unity is basically incompatible with the
"Select windows when the mouse moves over them" option in "System" >
"Preferences" > "Windows" (gnome-window-properties). This is because
moving the mouse to the menu bar will often move it over another window,
changing the window focus.
So, whenever Unity is being used with the global menu bar:
* the "Window Selection" section of the "Window Preferences" window should be
hidden
* the "Select windows when the mouse moves over them" option should be treated
as if it was off.
