When XML-Copy-Editor looses window focus, if an auto-completion drop-down is active, it will remain on top, regardless of the active window, until it is dismissed in XML-Copy-Editor. Behavior is consistent, stable, reproducible and does not otherwise interfere with XML-CE or any other application.

Reported behavior was produced on Ubuntu 14.04 'trusty' amd64 running GNOME 3.9.90 and the fglrx proprietary Radeon video drivers.

Personal notes:

Thanks for the incredibly useful and helpful tool (editing XML with a plain text editor is a pain in the ass). This bug is, at worst, a minor annoyance for me.

I'm a relatively novice coder, but I've enough familiarity with C++ to take a peek at the source for this, I had difficult time locating the class that calls the event that creates the drop-down for tag auto-completion. I've successfully reproduced the issue after building from source. If there is anything I can do to assist in finding and/or fixing this, please let me know. i'd be happy to tweak the source and rebuild or perform any other tests with XML-CE on my local environment.
