[Bug 1076972] [NEW] "System error detected" window is not in the alt-tab list, can be lost

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Sometimes a "System error detected" window pops up in Ubuntu, alerting
the user about this situation.

If you happen to be working on something else that is maximized, and hit
alt-tab for some reason, you might lose the error window. It will get
behind the maximized window and the only way to get back to it is to
minimize everything until you find it.

In summary, the "system error detected" dialog is not in the list of
windows you see when switching using "alt-tab" and I find it quite easy
to lose.
