I'm afraid it was decided this is not a valid paper cut and not something we want to fix this way. Not only is the coding and the testing (don't forget the testing for an issue like this!) that would be required to fix the bug too much to make the bug a valid papercut, but Mark Shuttleworth also indicated that he finds the current situation better than what a solution for this report would give us: > It's definitely not a papercut :-) > > Personally, I think trying to prevent focus-stealing does more harm than > good.
