Right, that's how it normally works.
If you look at my video again you'll see focus is lost without me
leaving the window I was in, just because I enter a region occupied by
the window underneath (not visible), and that window is a special one
(there is a hierachy where chrome steals from gnome-terminal, and the
arduino gui also steals from gnome-terminal, but not the other way
around.

Can't say, but this never ever happened to me with any E version before,
including older ones.
I have to spend some time downgrading/upgrading versions to confirm it's
not in 0.21.5, and then find where it breaks.
