Comment # 10 on bug 772344 from
Thanks Wolfgang, you're brilliant. Thanks also for making the testing easy
(providing packages and saying which minimum needs to be installed, that really
helped).

Re D): In kdm it would be "focus strictly under mouse", not "focus follows
mouse", either can be set for the desktop. The difference is that the window
does not lose focus with the latter when the mouse is moved onto the desktop
and no window is under the pointer. That really ought to be the behaviour for
kdm too?

For me the change with GrabInput caused years of aggrevation with
non-functional KDE software. As you say, "yes" was the behaviour until 2009.
Setting that to "no" annoyed all normal keyboard users while allowing a
minority to use on-screen keyboards. I say it's a minority because I had never
heard of such things being available for kdm. I am certain my use cases will
always be "yes", so would personally favour that default.

It all comes down to communication. How do you tell users to change option
never-heard-of in file never-needed-to-touch-that? (Not this bugzilla...)
