Hmm... I'm usually testing with windowMaker and metacity and those two
never do focus the notification popups. I agree with you that the
notifications shouldn't get the focus per default.

As far as I understand it is a preference in the window manager wether
to focus new window (or child windows) at all. And if the user
configures the window manager to do depending on the window manager the
popups might get focus.

I don't think using gtk_window_set_accept_focus(win, FALSE) would be
correct as this would make the windows unusable for keyboard
interaction. Therefore I do not consider the focus stealing a problem,
as it works when the window manager is configured not to do focus
stealing.
