obconf fails to set focus follows mouse

[A Law]

Raspbian buster release 10 running on a Raspberry Pi B.

Since I am only used to the "focus following mouse", and find having to click to enter keystrokes
into the window with my attention counter intuitive & rather dangerous (typing into the wrong program),I was disappointed that lxinput offers no option to correct the focus.

Thus I tried obconf. Great: the option was there. But while one aspect of the focus worked,
most of the mouse and keyboard entry was broken. Mouse over window raised the window, but the *keyboard* focus was still in the last window. Even worse, the mouse could no longer drag windows nor recognise clicks: it appeared that mouse events within windows were no longer recognised. Only in the panel did the mouse work normally.

I then tried editing ~/.config/openbox/lxde-pi-rc.xml directly, but I could not find anything that
worked, so perhaps this is a bug in openbox?

Update. I said that editing lxde-pi-rc.xml did not work. However, it did start working after all.

This worked:

    <focusDelay>0</focusDelay>

    <focusLast>no</focusLast>
    <underMouse>no</underMouse>
  </focus>

</openbox_config>

obconf remains broken. I have not tried an upgrade to testing.
