Raising window while in fullscreen mode

Bug Description

This may be a bug in metacity but I noticed it in Evolution so I'll report it here.

I have metacity set to have focus follow the mouse. If I put Evolution in fullscreen, right click on the column headers to get the "Customize Current View" dialog, then move the mouse off the dialog onto the main window then the dialog stays on top as expected. However, if I open either of the two sub-windows (Sort/Fields Shown) then move the mouse across the main window to get to the sub-window the sub-window is sent to the bottom.

Thanks for your bug. What version of Ubuntu do you use? How do you put evolution to fullscreen? Does it happen only in fullscreen mode. What window is sent to the bottom? You get the sort window under the main window? or just behind the customize dialog?

I'm running an updated Ubuntu Edgy.

Using a keyboard shortcut for "Toggle fullscreen mode" as set in the
Keyboard shortcuts dialog.

The "Show Fields" and "Sort" dialogs are sent under the evolution main window.

marking unconfirmed, that works fine on my feisty desktop, either that has been fixed or that depends of some other factor. Probably to forward upstream if somebody still get that problem on feisty

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Thanks in advance.

I'm not using gnome or evolution currently. So no, it's not an issue
for me at the moment.
