I just discovered that this problem also
happens in 'click-to-focus' mode.
It is just more annoying
in 'focus-follows-mouse' mode.

When a popup is displayed, a click outside
the popup window hides the popup and is passed
to the window below the cursor.
But that does not cause the activation of
the underlying window because the window
manager is not informed of that click.
Basically it does not involve the 'Activate and pass click'
function of the window manager.

Here is a precise scenario to reproduce:

- two partially overlapping konqueror windows.
  make sure that one can see the 'new tab' button
  of the lower window.
- perform a quick single click on a menu of the upper
  konqueror window, so that the menu popup is
  displayed and stays there without maintaining
  the mouse button depressed.
- move the mouse over the 'new tab' button of
  the lower window and perform a quick single click.
  The popup disappears and the 'new tab' button
  is triggered. But the lower konqueror window
  remains inactive.

Going to report upstream...
