Focus following the mouse is not an option. In fact as stated in the
initial post I want to avoid loosing the focus at all. I used kwrite
just to illustrate the problem. The main reason for me not loosing the
focus are some programs wich react bad, when they loose/regain the focus
while in input mode. 

Since I learned from the ongoing thread, that this is more or less a KDE
problem, since it works in GNOME as I expect (and as Marc stated in some
RISC OS), I will try my luck on a kde-list. If I find a solution there I
will post it here as well.

thanks to all
