There is a big difference between auto-raise, and auto-focus.
I would complain about auto-focus on pop-ups (that should be my configuration choice)
but auto-raise isn't (as) anoying. Its a visual distraction, but then again, thats why
its called a 'popup', but at least it didn't cause me to type the wrong thing into
the wrong window.

The problem is that the "automatic focus change only when intended by
user" will never be done 100% correctly. This is just impossible to do.
So the actual better user experience case would be to always require the
user to press some (easy) key combination to transfer the focus from the
currently focused window. The user would quickly learn it.

Then the problem shifts to whether the newly created windows should be
opened in the background or not.
