I've found a workaround for the always-on-top problem: I used Window FX to adjust "maximize to set size" so that windows leave a couple extra pixels on the side of the screen where I'm got my dock. Now when I slide my mouse off the screen, the dock pops up just like before.

...nope. Went and installed it, and still no on-top. Seems like with each update less things work for me. Shoulda' saved that old .6 installation file...
Question for someone who's already installed this: Have they fixed the problem with always-on-top and maximized windows? I don't want to go and lose all my settings for nothing... Thanks.
Hmm -- it turns out the autohide will appear over maximized windows, if you hold down on the left mouse button and drag off the screen. Then the dock appears and you can release the button. Strange... but at least I can use the dock now.
As a person who *does* use autohide and maximized windows, is there any way I can go back to .7 until this bug is fixed? I think I saved over my old copy of OD.;
