Great! If you're busy using Firefox you don't want to be distracted. Once your attention leaves Firefox, you'll find this new window and you can act upon it. If it was anything urgent, you'd have a red indicator in the panel. Note: alert windows that the focused application opens would have focus thrown to them as they're opened. So they could still appear at the front and focused. (Preferences dialogues are a good example.) > That's the main reason I dislike the current behavior of the update > manager window. :) Because you want to be distracted by shiny updates? :) _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ayatana Post to : ayatana@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ayatana More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
