Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: policykit

Description:    Ubuntu hardy (development branch)
Release:        8.04
Packages:
    policykit: 0.7-2ubuntu5
    policykit-gnome: 0.7-2
    gnome-applets: 2.22.0-0ubuntu1

As the summary field indicates, when performing an action requiring a
PolicyKit authentication, the authentication window sometimes appears
behind the window that spawned it. As the spawner window is now
inactive, it cannot be moved, and the PolicyKit dialogue's title bar is
obscured, resulting in the user not being able to move it either (to see
the text it displays). The 'Cancel' and 'Authenticate' buttons are
visible and still be used.

Steps to recreate:
    Right click on the clock
    Click on 'Adjust Date & Time'
    Click on 'Set System Time'
    Click 'Cancel'
    Click on 'Set System Time' again
    This time the window appears behind the 'Time Settings' window.
