Hi all,
I'd also like a strict focus-follows-mouse policy, and the above idea works
well for me, except that sometimes I'm not in a tiled layout, so the mouse
isn't necessarily over a window. Is there a way to set the focus to the
root window, or even something like the status bar (basically anything
except a client window)?
Thanks!
