This bug still exists in latest stable precise and more irritatingly with 
almost any application.
For instance, I try to login to a web page in Firefox. I don't remember the 
password, so I start Keepass from Dash. I type my password in Keepass, hit 
Enter (or at least I think I do) and guess what, I realize I typed in Firefox 
and submitted the login form with Enter. I could not beleive my eyes. The 
password field within Keepass windows was even showed as focused with an orange 
border and a blinking cursor. Only the window was not in focus.
I could mention any other pairs of applications, I can reproduce the problem. 
Application #1 is running, starting Application #2 from Dash pops up 
Application #2, but still Application #1 is in focus.
