Bug#330188: gnome-applets: Sticky notes: always on top option

Package: gnome-applets
Version: 2.10.1-5
Severity: wishlist

As of 2.10, the sticky notes applet appears to have new (or perhaps
fixed :) behaviour whereby the notes are always on top. Although this
probably makes sense as the default setting, I personally find it quite
irritating: unticking 'Show Notes' is not quite the same as having on
the desktop, but under all the windows. I think it would be good to
have a preference along the lines of 'Always on Top', albeit with the
default as 'Yes'.

Thanks,
Andrew.
