User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; Windows NT 6.1; rv:2.0b2) Gecko/20100720 Firefox/4.0b2

When firefox is maximized and windows taskbar hidden (this option should be enabled) taskbar doesn't show up if you move your mouse to the bottom of the screen.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to windows 7 taskbar properties (right clic on taskbar - properties).
2. Enable checkbox to hide automatically windows taskbar.
3. Run firefox 4 maximized.
4. Try to switch to another program without minimize firefox.



I think it is a problem of what shows on top and what shows on bottom. If firefox is not maximized, but restored, then you can see taskbar, but in the area where the taskbar and the browser are at the same time, the taskbar is behind the browser.
