frederik.nnaji: I covered this in the article:

"What isn’t a solution

    * Always raising the lower window only on release, not on click
(suggested by many people). This would solve the problem at the cost of
weirding everyone out, not just breaking the expectations of existing
Metacity users and users from other window managers in the world of free
software, but also the expectations of Mac and Windows people."

There are *no* other systems I'm aware of which behave this way.  The
Mac doesn't, Windows doesn't, Metacity doesn't, and nor does any other
WM.  It would solve this one problem at the cost of introducing a much
larger problem.
