> it would be very nice to see the window manager implement "raise windows only to top of
stack of windows for that application".

I think sawfish does something like this?

The Firefox problem seems to have been fixed, if only recently.  I booted to a new install of
Ubuntu 7.10, and Firefox 2.0.0.12 doesn't raise itself on page loads anymore.  It still maps
new windows over the top of the currently focused window, but it's a start anyway.
