Package: metacity
Version: 1:2.30.1-3
Severity: normal

Hello,

some of my metacity settings:

	/apps/metacity/general/focus_mode = "sloppy"
	/apps/metacity/general/compositing_manager = true

I have a shortcut to open a new Terminal on Ctrl-Alt-T. When a Terminal (A) is
active and I open a new one by pressing Ctrl-Alt-T the new Terminal (B) gets the
focus (which is OK). But when pressing Tab the first time in B the focus
returns to A which is very annoying.

Best regards
Uwe
