While Deskbar auto-raise function got much better, it is still really
annoying.
Imagine the following scenairo:
- You have more than one workspace
- each have windows on it, and the windows are positioned so, that they
cover the deskbar
- raise deskbar on one workspace
- switch to other worspace, the deskbar is now under the other windows,
this is inconsistent
This is an annoying feature or bug, where one have to manually raise the
windows to get them visible. Sometimes Deskbar doesn't even want to obey
the raise-send_to_the_background commands.
Expected behaviour: Deskbar state shouldnt be handled per worksapce basis,
but globally, as it is a part of the OS. not a user application, thus it
should not be visible on some and be covered on other workspaces. IF the
user sends it behind, it should be sent behind on every workspace, at
least if auto-raise enabled in the deskbar settings.
