Alexandre,

Can you give us an explanation or pointer to one?  This sounds like something 
that Gary worked hard to stop from happening.  I want you to have what you want 
from your image, and I need my future users to have what they will demand 
(loudly<g>).  I am also convinced that there are things (e.g.  mouse wheel 
input) that should "follow the mouse" without affecting keyboard focus, and 
this might be one of them, but referring to focus gives me the idea that 
keyboard input will go to the columns based on mouse position, and that 
(PLEASE!!!!!) needs to be optional - it drives me batty.  I type quite fast, 
and if the input goes to what amount to commands instead of editing, it can get 
ugly.

There are some preferences that control behavior like this, and any such 
overrides should be conditional on one being set, or moved into the themes, 
probably as an aspect vs. implied by the theme choice.  By the latter, I am 
assuming that you want Motif style mouse/focus behavior in any old theme you 
happen to choose.  That's fine, but it should be optional or we are taking a 
step backward in feel.

Bill
