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.
