Yes, I can mouse over the panel and it will raise but it is not the
standar behaviour you see with other panels (fbpanel, gnome-panel,...).

I forgot to say that almost all applications cover the panel (when
maximizing them) *completely*. That is not usable :(

Here a list of apps :

cover the panel completely
--------------------------
xedit
Rox-Filer Window
gnome-calc
xcalc
...

cover the panel partially
-------------------------
aterm
xterm


Those are some apps I tested.

I tried the alpha version and it has the same problem.
