[Bug 251177] [NEW] firefox steals focus when opening an application

[Damien Cassou]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox

When I click on a pdf link in firefox, a dialog offers me to open the
file or to save it. If I select "open with" and "document viewer
(default)", evince opens and maximizes, but the focus is still on
firefox. If I type ALT+F4 to close the window, I close Firefox ! (it
should be noted that ALT+F4 in Firefox does not display the confirmation
dialog).

$ lsb_release -rd
