Please describe the problem:
There's partially working code in CVS that integrates libwnck into dogtail.

The method Window.activate() has a partially working implementation that ought
to raise a window, but it doesn't work.

I suspect this is due to bogus timestamps on the X event.  Owen suggested that
we need to create a transient invisible X window purely for the sake of getting
a timestamp (and that it's a design flaw in this part of the windowmanager protocol)

Steps to reproduce:

Expected results:


Does this happen every time?
