1) start two programs, e.g. gnome-terminal and nautilus
2) set one of the two windows to "Always On Top"
3) switch to the other application and open a dialog there.
4) close the dialog
5) Now the application with the setting "Always On Top" has focus instead of the other application
Several times I closed the wrong application because of this or started the wrong action in the wrong application (I often use keyboard shortcuts instead of using the mouse), which can be pretty annoying or even result in data loss.
In order to exclude any side effect of my current installed system I tested this also with an unmodified "Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 64 bit" image booted from USB Stick. It is the same there.
This is my first bug report to Ubuntu and I am not sure if you need more information?
