This bug affects (and annoys) me too. Also if I open Nautilus and then try to focus it with Alt+Tab, its at the end of the list, so I have to press Tab about 3 times.
When I read https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/864233/comments/4 I tried changing that property: CompizConfig Settings Manager -> General Options -> Focus & Raise Behavior -> Focus Prevention Level -> "Off" to "Very High" (default: "Low") - "Off": Nautilus gets focus - "Low" to "Very High": Nautilus doesn't get focus Sometimes also with "Low" Nautilus gets focus, when I click the title bar of another window right before. I assume using "Off" wouldn't be very good, too. It would fix the problem with Nautilus (and maybe other applications), but if for example the update-manager pops up it would probably steal focus from the application I'm working with. Maybe the code behind this (especially for the "Low" preference) should be corrected.
