did as instructed, didn't work using opera9.6 and update-manager as
tests over open firefox windows.

restarted gnome to make sure, same result.

I would like this reopened please.

note that

/apps/metacity/general/focus_mode

doesn't actually have a strict mode, but allows you to enter one:

The window focus mode indicates how windows are activated. It has three
possible values; "click" means windows must be clicked in order to focus
them, "sloppy" means windows are focused when the mouse enters the
window, and "mouse" means windows are focused when the mouse enters the
window and unfocused when the mouse leaves the window.


but /apps/metacity/general/focus_new_windows

has a strict option for programs started from a terminal:

This option provides additional control over how newly created windows
get focus. It has two possible values; "smart" applies the user's normal
focus mode, and "strict" results in windows started from a terminal not
being given focus.

I rarely start programs from a terminal....

A program shouldn't get the focus if the focus has been changed between the 
start and the ready state of the program
