Confirming because I can reproduce it myself.
** Changed in: metacity (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Confirmed
** Description changed:
(note: this was titled "steal focus ever" but on Adam's sage advice,
I've changed it. While I would like this more accurately titled bug
fixed, I still would never like to see a program steal focus ever :) tx
to adam)
I guess it's a gnome bug.
My focus get's stolen by any number of programs.
This may seem like a duplicate, but it's not - unlike other reports, I
don't really care which particular programs are stealing my focus.
It just shouldn't by anything, ever.
There doesn't seem to be a setting that enables a "don't you dare"
regards focus stealing.
Ubuntu Intrepid, fully up to date from this morning on eeepc 1000H

+
+ Steps to reproduce:
+
+ 1) Open any application. For example, gedit.
+ 2) Start a program that takes a while to launch. For example, OpenOffice
Writer.
+ 3) While Writer is opening, quickly switch focus to gedit. (And start typing,
if you're fast enough.)
+ 4) In the middle of your typing, Writer will open and steal focus.

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