On the Desktop, after an email is sent out, the popup remains on top of all my windows.  I can't actually go to my Zimbra email tab without closing the window.

This was added at the request of others, because if the popup isn't in your face, its easy to lose it and then think that nothing is happening. For example you can completely lose it behind the main window. Popups are hard. We resolved this here bug 1072335 because we know the iframe will fix it.

We can remove the focus, but then its easy to lose.

Need info-ing muffinresearch to see if he has any brilliant idea on this one...

Maybe rather than force focus we should just focus if someone clicks the relevant button and the window is already open? That would be better than nothing happening and that's also what persona used to do.

That might be less intrusive.

Maybe we could check if Marketplace is in focus before focusing also. I think the button will be a spinner so it doesn't make sense to click on it.
This might not work if the user has multiple monitors though.
Agree that its a problem, but at the moment we can't think of a better solution as per comment 1. When the iframe flow happens, this will go away.
