I've decided to abandon WindowMaker (which served me well until the=20
advent of GTK+2) because of a bug that causes the focus to cycle back=20
and forth very quickly between two GTK+2 windows under certain common=20
circumstances. (The bug only occurs in the sloppy focus modes)

I looked at fluxbox, and quickly found that in its sloppy focus modes,=20
a click anywhere in the window's content region will raise the window=20
(hence, working in a word processor with the intent to keep another=20
window, like an AIM window hovering above it doesn't work very well).

So I looked at openbox, which doesn't show minimized windows anywere=20
except for its windows menu (fluxbox shows them right on the slit).

Does anybody know of anything that addresses one of these problems? (so=20
I can switch to either fluxbox or blackbox and have it cover both=20
features correctly (I looked at the most recent WindowMaker CVS=20
snapshot and found that it still hadn't solved the GTK2 interaction=20
problem)
