From an architectural perspective, the [window stack] interface is way to generic and we should start refactoring both the notion of a window stack (we are app-centric, after all)

Not necessarily an embedded application topic, but connected to it. This bug report is about the window stack not being a window stack but an application stack.

Nowadays qtmir+unity8 does surface-based window management (as opposed to application-based WM). So I guess this is fixed.
