Follow-up Comment #6, bug #20068 (project mypaint):
Amusingly, I can't reproduce this when built and running in GTK3 mode (very
much not the recommended fix!) I suspect it's doing different things with its
implict grabs.
I see no real difference between focus-follows-mouse and click-to-focus with
no autoraising etc. Unsafe to draw conclusions from that because WMs differ.
Anyway, there's two workarounds we could deploy to prevent this from breaking
workflow for users currently
a. Obnoxiously, by having DragModes break grabs before starting their own
grab,
b. More politely, by having DragModes pop themselves from the layer stack when
they detect they cannot start because something else has grabbed the pointer
already (in truth, they probably shouldn't be receiving the event at all in
this state).
I'll have a play. It's interesting to know that in some cases several seconds
can elapse before 5.
