You wouldn't need a 'new' (easy) key combination... your window manager
already
defines a way to 'set focus'

Thank you...
There is a big difference between auto-raise, and auto-focus.

I would complain about auto-focus on pop-ups (that should be my
configuration choice)
but auto-raise isn't (as) anoying.  Its a visual distraction, but then
again, thats why
its called a 'popup', but at least it didn't cause me to type the wrong
thing into
the wrong window.
