Bug Description

When I hit Alt-Tab with LibreOffice open I see the LibreOffice icon has two windows, so I select it and hit down and I see my main document window as well as the Bullets/Numbering floating toolbar as windows.

I was not able to reproduce this bug. I opened Writer and open a document in it then pressed alt+tab and there was only on instance in the alt-tab switcher. Are there any steps I should take to try to reproduce.
Note: I use unity from trunk though

To reproduce:

1. Start LibreOffice Writer.
2. Click the Table menu to add a table - you should see the Table toolbar floating over the document.
3. Hit alt-tab and the LibreOffice icon should have two windows.

This problem seemed to go away for me when I first got the fix, but now its back again - the 'bullets and numbering' dialogue box shows up in alt+tab and is indicated by an extra little white triangle next to the icon in the launcher.
