Title:
  ubuntu-bug will not focus browser if in a different workspace

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I am going through the video here -
  http://www.jonobacon.org/2012/02/28/tutorial-video-reporting-a-bug-in-
  ubuntu/ and basically the same instructions as here -
  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs

  When I get to "A window will then pop up, asking you if you want to
  report the bug. Click "Send Report" if you wish to proceed, or click
  "Content of the report" if you want to review the information Apport
  collected."

  I click send report and nothing happens. After a much searching I
  realized that Firefox had a non-bold arrow next to it and decided to
  click it, it took me to the workspace to the right.

  I just tested again with FF closed and it focused it this time. I
  would think that it should either pop up the icon in the dock like Mac
  does or just take me to the workspace where firefox is, the latter
  being preferred. I noticed many issues with window focusing in 11.10
  and it appears it is still here for 12.04.

  Please fix window focusing, especially to report a bug.
