Binary package hint: gnome-app-install

Gnome-app-install steals the window focus when it is done downloading the packages and starts installing them.

The same happens in synaptic.

Update Manager steals the focus when installing (as mentioned before), and as well sets the window-manager urgent hint (making the window list item attract attention), and steals the focus again when it verifies it is up-to-date. This is disruptive when one is doing other tasks simultaneously.
