Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: window-picker-applet
When a window requests attention, its icon flashes in window-picker-
applet.
However, when I uncheck the setting "Show windows from all workspaces"
and a window on a different workspace requests attention, I don't see
it until I switch to the workspace containing the window.
The patch below modifies the behaviour so that windows requesting
attention are visible on all workspaces.
This happens on window-picker-applet-0.5.10 on Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS, but
the patch is against the latest upstream git, which I believe is called
0.5.8-1?
Note other words for workspace may include viewport or virtual desktop.
