Did you test that with the default config?
Because in the default config, new clients should still get raised via 
awful.rules. The default rule that matches any client has focus = 
awful.client.focus.filter and awful.rules now focuses clients via emitting the 
request::activate signal which causes awful.ewmh to raise the client (but only 
if possible).

However, this bug is still valid. Clients which awful.client.focus.filter 
"rejects" won't get raised. I am not sure if this matters much for c.type == 
desktop or c.type == dock, but it should definitely be a problem for splashes 
(dunno about any example) and unfocusable clients (e.g. xeyes).

Also, the above "but only if possible" means that non-sticky clients on 
non-selected tags won't be raised. Dunno if that's much of a problem since they 
get marked as urgent...

I would propose adding raise = true to the default rule.
Daniel, what do you think?
