How to reproduce:
-
Select a photo and click on publish.
-
Minimize the new window that poped out.
-
Select and event and press F2.
What happens:
Nothing
What should happen:
A dialog to rename the event should appear.
Also, clicking on the main window does not bring it to foreground, I think the publish plugin grabs too much focus (this is under unity on 13.04, if it matters, Shotwell installed from Ubuntu's repositories.

- Subject changed from When publish dialogs in other windows are open, keyboard shortucts do not work to Publishing dialog can be minimized in Unity
- Category set to ux
The publishing dialog is designed to work modally. That is, when it's up you shouldn't be able to use the rest of the Shotwell app. See #2318 (closed).
What's going on here is that Unity is allowing for the minimize button to be displayed, and when it's displayed, to minimize only that window. That's not how it works under GNOME 3 Shell, which doesn't give the user a minimize button.
Fixing this, then, means fixing Shotwell under Unity so the publishing dialog isn't displayed. I've changed the title accordingly.
