Unity is not ready for prime time yet?? It's really lacking in a lot of areas, and the UI experience is quite horrid.

For those people using Ubuntu 11.04, Unity is the default environment in which they will be working. I very quickly removed Unity and installed Gnome on my computers.

You could also choose the old classic Ubuntu from the login screen

without

any removal/install actions.

You could also select "Ubuntu classic" in System Settings -> Login Screen and it will be default for all future logins.

So, by all the replies slating Unity (which I think is great, actually), might I assume that my original query is unanswerable?

Just a reminder of my initial "question". I asked if anyone knows how to make Gimp's window focusing work more intuitively in Unity. For example, when switching between workspaces, the focus defaults to the toolbox.

Well, I guess this question should be asked to the unity developers. When they were developing the new window management, they hopefully have been thinking about multi-window applications and have a spec on how the focusing of the windows should behave.

If they have recommendations to application developers I'm sure we'll have a look at them and consider implementing their hints, provided they don't conflict with the "regular" window managers.
