Public bug reported: Launch an instance of Nautilus, then launch another package, e.g. Gedit or Terminal. Click on Gedit launcher brings Gedit window to the front, also with Terminal. Click on Nautilus launcher does not bring Nautilus window to the front but opens another instance of Nautilus. If Nautilus is hidden behind a browser say, you can end up with multiple instances of Nautilus all in the background.
