Bug Description

I have a cron job that runs the following:

$ dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/background/picture-uri "'file://$HOME/$(find backgrounds -type f | shuf -n1)'"

Every single time it runs, focus is stolen from my current window. This can be most inconvenient when I'm entering text into a window.

This didn't use to happen on 11.10, only on 12.04.
