I don't think I have enough information from GTK to know if a widget has consumed and event during a grab or if it should be handled by the system. Generally when a grab is on if the mouse has activated a system widget then it still gets events. As you mentioned in the rest of the post the system needs to manager its own system focus. I'd be happy to see if there is something we could do to fix this just not sure its possible. I don't like grabs as far as I know any window system that allows grabs also opens up cases where the app can lock up the window system.
