Public bug reported: On executing "geeqie --remote file <filename>" or "geeqie --remote view <filename", geeqie warps the mouse to the centre of its window. This seems a bit gratuitous: I probably put the mouse somewhere convenient to me.
More seriously, it severely interferes with using geeqie as a viewer from other applications. My most common usage has geeqie acting as viewer for another application that simply wants to display images. Geeqie has historically worked quite well at this, but stealing mouse (and, so, also keyboard) focus takes me away from the controlling application and leaves me interacting with geeqie only.
