Public bug reported:
Environment: "Ubuntu classic", no desktop effects
1) Maximize a Firefox window
2) Open one other application, say Calculator
3) alt+tab back to Firefox. Calculator is now hidden, because Firefox is in
front of it.
4) Press and hold alt+tab.
The window switcher will show that you are about to switch back to
Calculator. It will also draw a nice outline around the Calculator
window. However, the outline is all you can see of the window. The
actual calculator is still hidden behind the Firefox window.
Expected behaviour: the calculator should be raised temporarily, so you
can see what you're about to switch to. ("Temporarily", because if you
release and re-press tab, switching to a different window, then the
Calculator window should drop back again).
