Change in mouse over behaviour from Mate 16.04 to Mate 18.02 #177

I've have recently upgraded from Ubuntu Mate 16.04 to Mate 18.02 and have noticed the following change in the behaviour with the mouse over functionality on the dock.

With 16.04 if I have two terminal windows open and mouse over the terminal entry in the dock I get a window list which lets me select the terminal I want to switch to. Doing the same in 18.02, I get a menu which only has the option to 'Pin Mate Terminal'.

I now have to left click on the entry to get the window list. Is this intentional? If so, could an option be added to revert back to the 0.70 dock behaviour where mouse over shows the window list. I have been using 16.04 for some time and am used to the older behaviour.

I have done a clean install of Ubuntu Mate 18.02 on my machine. The included dock applet also appeared to have the same change in behaviour where the window list is no longer shown on mouse over.

I am running the latest version of dock v0.88 (GTK3) which I have compiled today (using the provided python installation script) to get around an issue with non-existent application entries appearing in the dock.

Thanks.
