Well I have to disagree here. I really don't like focus following mouse
and as soon as it was possible to shut it of on our X-Terminals and then
Linux workstations (changing from twm to fvwm) I did it. I like to not
pay attention to where the mouse is and do a lot with the cursor.

I don't know if it is possible to create windows which never get input
focus, but I think it should be. And this is definitively the way to go
for dialogs with only buttons and no "keyboard" input fields.
