its also not necessary if you use a window manager that doesn't
enforce click-to-focus, or if you turn off the WM's click-to-focus
policy. 

there are people who apparently *like* click-to-focus. 

what you perhaps want is "focus-follows-application", which is a bit
more subtle, but relatively easily enforced by the application itself,
using X enter/leave events on its windows combined with focus grabs.
