No, I think the model Greg is proposing is essentially this: the current focus is a privilege that at most one window may have. To have it, it must be explicitly granted by something else, such as the panel launcher. Having this "non-stealing" and "focus stealing prevention" stuff is doing it backwards. I do wish these things would be thrashed out at freedesktop.org or similar to get some standards around user interface expectations and behaviour. It's about time we got some real user interface standards instead of all this making stuff up and/or blindly following the leader/competition. a. -- Dialogs of background applications pop up in the foreground https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/67476 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
