Bug#511993: gnome: focusing problem after switching to new workspace

[Kejia]

Package: gnome
Version: 1:2.22.2~5
Severity: normal

Hi,

The problem occurs as I invoke some program via global keyboard-shortcut. At first, I run a program via keyboard shortcut in workspace 1, for example C-w to invoke iceweasel. Then, I switch to workspace 2 and press C-w again to invoke iceweasel, and it appears, but the system focus is not on the new iceweasel window. The thing shows right for invoking program by clicking some menu item or icon.

Cheers,
Kejia
