Comment (by edglex):

 I've seen other odd behaviour with deskbar auto-raise that I thought would
 make sense to add to this ticket.

 If you have the deskbar set to auto-raise and put a window partialy
 covering it, when you click on that window in a place where the window is
 covering the deskbar, the deskbar auto-raises. However it doesn't always
 do this, only most of the time.

 This is annoying since I tend to work with the deskbar in its default
 position and windows maximised. In this way when I move the mouse to the
 upper-right corner the deskbar auto-raises and I can use it to e.g. change
 workspace with the workspace applet (in the deskbar tray) or change
 application. However if I click in that area where the deskbar is covered
 by a window then the deskbar appears and I cant see what I'm doing.
 Currently I'm using auto-hide instead, but it's not as nice.
