Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kdebase-workspace

When switching applications with the netbook application switcher, focus
is supposed to move to the new app and the panel is supposed to
autohide.  Since it doesn't, the panel remains visible until some other
event causes focus to switch as so the U/I appears very inconsistent.
This is a significant usability issue with Plasma Netbook.

Upstream committed revision 1077918 to backport the fix for this to the
4.4 branch.  If this doesn't fix it, we probably need to consider
turning off the autohide by default.
