[Pkg-virtualbox-devel] Bug#536532: virtualbox-ose: VirtualBox raises its windows when it receives focus while the Create New Virtual Machine dialog is open

[Will Aoki]

Package: virtualbox-ose
Version: 1.6.6-dfsg-3
Severity: minor

When the Create New Virtual Machine dialog is open and the main VirtualBox
window receives focus, VirtualBox raises all of its windows to the top. This
is extremely annoying when one is using focus-follows-mouse, because if the
cursor but passes over the VirtualBox window, suddenly VirtualBox is on top
of the window I was working with. I don't see a way to turn this behavior
off.

I've not yet seen this behavior with any other dialog boxes.

I'm using the fvwm window manager without a desktop environment.
