Description Hans-Peter Deifel 2012-11-18 22:34:00 CET 
The client type is sent to the WM when activating a window. For a panel, it should be WNCK_CLIENT_TYPE_PAGER, but the default is  WNCK_CLIENT_TYPE_APPLICATION. This is needed, because some WMs decide to ignore focus stealing requests from applications.

Even though this bug was created a year earlier and had a patch attached, another bug got the attention and was eventually fixed in commit d296ca7.
