Dear tmux maintainers, First of all, many thanks for your impressive continued work on this great program.
I stumbled upon an issue with activity monitoring in trying to setup a new workflow. I am using the bell as an urgency hint in most of my console programs, to notify my terminal and windowmanager (namely xterm and i3wm) of important notices. I have been using it with tmux to pass on a bell signal for a long time. Yet, as I recently tried to use activity monitoring, I found out that the alert is sent only when the alterting window is not the current window. However, as I am using several terminals and workspaces, the current window is not always visible, so I needed to create a dummy window to switch to in order to get the notification from the real window. I tried to play a bit with the options, and even with the hooks in the latest versions, with no success. Diggig in the code, I saw that you filter the alerts from the current window. I propose you a little modification, which actually suits my needs, where the bell is passed even in current window. Apparently your integration strategy is via email patches, so I will post it as a followup. I will be happy to discuss this, whether you think it is relevant or not, or if I missed a simple configuration setup...
