A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
If I switch desktop, Java windows always get the focus. There's no problem with other application.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1. On Desktop 1, open 2 windows, a Java window (serialver -show does it) and e.g. a xterm.
2. Bring the Xterm in front.
3. Switch the desktop.
4. Open xterm.
5. Switch back to desktop 1.


EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
The Java window has the focus
ACTUAL -
The Xterm should have the focus because it had the focus before switching.

ERROR MESSAGES/STACK TRACES THAT OCCUR :
No error message.

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
No source code is needed, simply use serialver -show.
---------- END SOURCE ----------

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
Well, changing the window manager. Other window manager handle desktop switching different, so the but does not exist there.

The problem has been confirmed by the developer of the Xfce window manager, Olivier Fourdan. Read here http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.desktop.xfce.devel.version4/cutoff=4605 .
