when changing themes or updating packages (#546509) It also contains fixes
for a number of behavioral issues: - A problems moving windows with dialogs
between workspaces (#237158) - Problems with disabling keybindings using
gnome-keybinding-properties (#473224) - A warning when logging in (#493245)
- Application-induced window raise fails when the raise_on_click option off
(#526045) - Tcl/Tk and Java applications fail to raise windows (#503522) -

under the pointer (#530261) - A GConf key is added to allow specifying windows
that shouldn't get focused when newly created (#530262) - A GConf key is
added to specify that newly created windows should always be mapped on top,
even when they don't get focus (#530263)
