Bug Description
SRU TESTCASE
1. start Ubuntu 2d session from the login screen
2. start gnome terminal
3. note the launcher hides since the new window is created just below the launcher area
4. now install metacity from oneiric-proposed
5. repeat 1 and 2
6. note now the new window is created just right to the launcher so that it does not hide
In the last rebuild of metacity, (metacity (1:2.34.1-1ubuntu4) oneiric on Sept. 16th ), this patch isn't being applied, it's in the patches folder but not listed in series file.
This causes the prior poor behaviour in unity-2d as noted in bug 688816
This was either done intentionally without comment in the changelog or unintentionally, in any event it's been almost 3 months, about time to address this one way or the other
