Title:
  existing "Reboot Required" dialog box should be focused when clicking
  on panel icon

Status in “update-notifier” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-notifier

  If an upgrade requires a system reboot and the "Reboot Required" panel
  icon is displayed and the user clicks it, a dialog is opened ("Reboot
  required", some text, and "Reboot now" or "later"). If the user leaves
  that dialog window open and brings another window to the foreground,
  then the dialog window should be brought to the foreground when the
  user clicks on the "Reboot Required" panel icon again. Currently, the
  existing dialog will stay in the background (possibly hidden behind
  another window), and clicking on the panel icon again does not have
  any visible effect then.

  To summarise: as the panel icon can apparently detect that the reboot
  dialog is already open, could it maybe also bring that dialog to front
  in that case? Also, the dialog should be moved to the current virtual
  desktop (in case the user has switched desktops); or the dialog window
  could be displayed on all desktops right from the start.

  I realize this situation should happen very seldom, but it did just
  now happen to me :-) and I think it would be nice to have this fixed
  for the future.

  This happened on Intrepid alpha4 with all updates, with update-
  notifier 0.71.3 .
