John, perchance do you use Metacity rather than Compiz? The reason I ask
is that I'm still seeing the unfocused dialog issue and was trying
different things to work out why you were failing to see it. If I switch
to Metacity the problem goes away.

While this is apparently a window manager issue, I think it would be
good if a solution could be found. I'd think this even if Metacity were
going to be the default window manager. But I heard somewhere that
OpenSolaris is switching over to Compiz by default.

Take care.
