Ok, the way I favorize after the feedback we got so far is, that I'm going to make focus-follows-mouse client-window related and not frame-window related. This avoids the effects with stacking mode and it also allows to add a raise flag to focus() which allows to only raise a window on click ($MODKEY-Button1 or titlebar click) and never raising on sloppy-focus.

Yes, I ask @wmii.de if someone is still working on them? If not, I could reserve tonight some time to polish the man pages. Regards, -- Anselm R.
