I can confirm this strange behavior. For example:
0. Start without buddy list (close the buddy list if it's opened).
1. Open a terminal (Applications->Accesories->Terminal).
2. Click on Indicator Applet icon and then select Pidgin.
Expected behavior: The buddy list is displayed IN FRONT OF the terminal
window.
Actual behavior: The buddy list is displayed BEHIND the terminal window.
3. Click again on Indicator Applet icon and select Pidgin. Result: the
buddy list is again incorrectly displayed behind the terminal window.
4. Click on the buddy list to bring it to the front.and select Indicator
Applet icon -> Pidgin. Result: the buddy list is correctly hidden.
5. Click again on Indicator Applet icon -> Pidgin. Result: the buddy
list is incorrectly displayed behind the terminal window.
6. Close the buddy list clicking on the X icon in its title bar, and
then click on Indicator Applet -> Pidgin. Result: the buddy list is
correctly displayed IN FRONT OF the terminal window.
7. Click again on Indicator Applet -> Pidgin. Result: the buddy list is
correctly hidden.
8. Bring the buddy list back again clicking on Indicator Applet ->
Pidgin. Result: the buddy list is correctly displayed in front of the
terminal window.
9. Click on the terminal window to bring it to the front, and then click
on Indicator Applet -> Pidgin. Result: the buddy list keeps incorrectly
behind the terminal window, instead of get hidden.
