Seems a bit of a stretch to force people to change window managers with 2.7 just so it doesn't do this. It would be nice, at a minimum, to know which window manager is recommended to get the correct behavior. If I knew the right bug number it might help me understand it better. Maybe Metacity is being updated to address the issue. -- Michael J.
