Description:

Here's a link to my personal rc.xml: http://pastebin.ca/1714630. Its lines 256-273 are written to make openbox shows the windows opened in all desktops (with keybind - W-Tab) and, with selection, raises them to use. It works as a charm in 3.4.7.2. But for 3.4.8 (and 3.4.8-2) it doesn't work as expected, not raising the windows sometimes. Specially talking about 3.4.8-2, if you have a terminal window fully maximized, you can't raise any window above it, what doesn't occur in 3.4.7.2. I think it's a bug in the sofware that comes with the newer release.

Feel free to use my rc.xml with openbox-3.7.2 and openbox-3.4.8-x, open several windows in all desktops and try to make a W-Tab in both versions. The openbox will do different things. In openbox-3.4.7.2, the WM will kork as expected. Although, in openbox-3.4.8-x, full maximize a terminal window (in my case, konsole) and try to do the same. The windows that are on other desktops (workspaces) won't raise for you to work on them.

Additional info:
* package version(s) openbox-3.4.8-x
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:

Feel free to use my rc.xml with openbox-3.7.4.2 and openbox-3.4.8-x, open several windows in all desktops and try to make a W-Tab in both versions, releasing the keybind sometimes when some window is selected in the dialog box in the center of the screen. The openbox versions will do different things. In openbox-3.4.7.2, the WM will work as expected, raising window selected in the dialog box. In openbox-3.4.8-x, full maximize a terminal window (in my case, konsole) and try to do the same. The windows that are on other desktops (workspaces) won't raise for you to work on them.
This task depends upon
