Description Garrett LeSage 2002-08-05 16:26:37 UTC 
If a new window pops up without focus, the current window raises up to the
top before the user is able to interact with the new window. 

This happens in many applications such as Mozilla, the Gimp, and several
others.

oh look, autoraise is on crack! ;-)

probably have to cue the timeout from the focus event, not when
focusing the window. fixing #90382 will help.
Comment 2 Rob Adams 2003-02-26 03:37:58 UTC 
I should note that new windows never pop up without focus any more, so
this would never actually come up.  Unless an unfocusable window
popped up.  But then it's not clear what SHOULD happen with autoraise.
Comment 3 Rob Adams 2004-07-31 21:27:36 UTC 
windows can now pop up without focus, but this will still not be a problem since
f this happens they will be placed behind the currently focused window.

Um...doesn't that mean FIXED?  I'm going to mark it as such, but reopen if I was
wrong.
