SUMMARY
Hi there,
I've just tried using activities, since they seem like virtual desktop on drugs and at first glance, I liked the concept. However, I quickly noticed that after switching activities using the keyboard shortcuts (Meta+A is the default, I set it to Meta+Tab), I can't interact with any right-click context menus anymore. They are hidden behind every window on that activity. The only way to fix it is to re-open the windows. However, after switching to another activity, this issue exists again, making activities unusable for me.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create new activity
2. move window to new activity and switch to it
3. try to open any right-click menu

OBSERVED RESULT
the menu is hidden behind the window

EXPECTED RESULT
the menu is in front of the menu
