[Bug 333389] Re: After launching app that starts with a dialog, focus not on that dialog

Interesting thing you say there: I don't use the window-picker-applet, I
just use Alt+Tab to switch between windows. When I add it to my panel,
it works as expected. But that should be a choice -- I have no need for
a window picker, it doesn't add any value for my keyboard-centric usage
pattern combined with my auto-hide panel.

Speaking as a developer, it just escapes me why a window picker should
influence focus. Separation of responsibilities suggests that this
should really be a task for the window manager, that a window picker
should just display the state as it is without influencing it... Or am I
missing something here?
