Banshee steals focus (twice!) when starting. I think this is a usability problem and can also, to a certain point, be a security problem, since that if you are, for example, writing a password somewhere and then Banshee steals the focus, you'll be writing the password at Banshee's search box (and someone may be looking).

What I expected to happen:
- I'm reading something at, say, Firefox (gedit, evince, instant messaging, etc.), click on the Banshee icon and click immediately on the application I was, to keep reading/doing what I was doing. Banshee should start in the background.

What happens:
- I'm reading something at, say, Firefox (gedit, evince, instant messaging, etc.), click on the Banshee icon and click immediately on the application I was, to keep reading/doing what I was doing. Banshee window steals focus and appears at foreground. I switch again to the application I was before and then Banshee, when it ends loading the music library, steals focus again, appearing in the foreground.
