SUMMARY
Lately I've been trying a switch to Wayland and noticed how a dock configured to autohide, intellihide, etc, when using the mentioned flag to show on top of full screen windows, does not show on top of those windows at all. I use that feature to change between programs with the Super key and mouse. While I detected other bugs, one that minimized fullscreen apps will unminimize in the current virtual desktop instead of the one it was, being in two virtual desktops at the same time, and another that makes latte simply close without DrKonqi accusing a crash if trying to edit a dock or panel a second time, the one of the dock not being able to display on top of full screen windows is one that also bothers me the most when moving over from X11. I may open separate bug reports for the other two bugs but for now, only this one.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enable the "Can be above fullscreen windows" option for a panel or dock marked to autohide or intellihide

OBSERVED RESULT
Dock does not display on top of full screen windows unlike on X11

EXPECTED RESULT
Dock display correctly on top of full screen windows

It never intended to work on with x11. Wayland does not support it... not Latte responsibility.
