Public bug reported:
On a dual display system (Quantal alpha up to date) if an application
has multiple windows open on different displays then using the launcher
icon to return to the app goes to the window on the display the launcher
is on, even if the focus was previously on the other display.
To reproduce, on a dual display system with the launcher on the right hand
display open two firefox windows and place one on each display.
Open a Nautilus window and place it partially over the firefox window in the
left hand display.
Click on the Firefox window in the left hand display then on the Nautilus
window.
Click on the Firefox launcher.
What should happen: focus should return to the Firefox window in the left hand
display
What happens: focus goes to the Firefox window in the right hand display.
If the launcher is moved to the left hand display then in the equivalent
situation focus will return to the firefox window in the left hand
display.
The symptom does not appear to be specific to the application, reversing
the role of nautilus and firefox in the above scenario results in focus
returning to the wrong nautilus window.
