Well, I'm pretty sure there's _something_ there beyond that. After
all, most of my stack is totally different from yours, and I still
have oddities with focus and evince. Seems like we established in
other threads some issues in the world completely apart from ctwm in
chromium (I vaguely feel like I saw some odd behavior once, but I
almost never use it, so I don't really know). Not sure how much the
wm can or should do to deal with such, but...
It's good that your oddities have toned down, at any rate.
