 be for sloppy focus and NOT for mouse focus, because for mouse focus
 we really don't want a window focused if the pointer isn't in it.
 
 I don't care too much either way (since I use mouse focus), but if the
 Metacity maintainers would like this then I'll write a patch for it;
 it should be fairly simple.

+ostensibly this is intentional, since there s code to explicitly work
+this way for sloppy and mouse focus.  Theoretically, sloppy focus
+should focus the window underneath the mouse pointer when the
+workspace is switched.  But now that we have the per-workspace MRU, it
+may make more sense to simply focus the top window in sloppy focus as
+well.
+
+Either way I don't think we can make this change until after the Gnome
+2.6 release, since we're past UI freeze.
