I'm remarking this one as Fix Released. Not that I believe it is truely solved, but more that I believe that we've done all we can here. The reality is that the Window Mangers are fighting a problem with focus stealing, which is admirable, but we really want to effectively steal focus. So any way that we do solve the problem is a bug in the WM's goals. So then we're jumping through hoops to try and make it really work. This is an arms race, and we all know how successful those end up. Long term this needs to be fixed in the toolkits with some sort of truce decided between the toolkits and the window managers. But, that is way out of scope for this bug.
