Clicking blank space on top panel doesn't raise maximized window to front

Bug Description

==== SRU Testing ====

- Installed unity 4.24.0 from oneiric-proposed (when it's available)
- Restart your session (logout/login)
- Open a window and maximise it (window 1)
- Open a second window and keep it floating above window 1 (not maximised)
- Click on a blank part of the panel (between the last appmenu item and the first indicator)
- window 1 should now be active

=====================

Clicking the blank space on the top panel no longer raises the currently maximized window when it's behind other windows, as it did in Natty. Middle-clicking, dragging, and double-clicking the top panel all still work as expected however.

Hello Jay, or anyone else affected,

Accepted unity into oneiric-proposed, the package will build now and be available in a few hours. Please test and give feedback here. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you in advance!

this works now with the proposed unity.

Works fine for me too now.
