Bingo!  Thanks for the hint.  You don't do it so easily in Gnome/Compiz, 
but here's how for anyone who's interested:

Go to
System > Preferences > Advanced Desktop Effects Setting (or CompizConfig 
Settings Manager) > General Options > Focus & Raise Behaviour

and set Focus Prevention Level to 'Off'

Cheers, Mark  :-)
