Hi Martin, thanks for the report. looking at the various pointers, it looks like the spice viewer deliberately changed its behavior, breaking every DE in the process. While there might be good reason to do this (one bug report mentions race conditions), it would have been wise on their part to coordinate this with the window manager, especially since they put the burden to implement this on them. If you're interested in this, I advise you to explain that in a wishlist bug in the upstream bugzilla at https://bugzilla.xfce.org. I would advise you not to use words like above (“needs to be fixed” for example) and remember that people are working on Xfce on their free time.
