Description

To reproduce:

  • Open two windows (e.g. xfce4-terminal, thunar)
  • Click a menu button such as File' or Edit'.
  • Move the mouse to another window.

Expected behaviour: The focus follows the mouse into the second window.
Actual behaviour: The focus gets left behind in the wrong window.

Can also be caused by the right click menu.

Note: GNOME 2 has this bug also.

Version: 4.8.0
