Review Request: fixed widget explorer or activity manager not closed when clicking desktop area above panel

[Xavier Sythe]

Isn't this by design?  Users would be dragging widgets to place on their
desktop; the widget explorer shouldn't close on them during that process.
(i.e., they click on the background after dragging a widget onto it)
This would require users to specifically avoid clicking on the desktop
area, and there's no obvious usability reason for this.
