Yes, I've done that. I use fluxbox, which is a great for my needs but arguably not the most mature of the choices out there. It happens with all the mouse focus options they have. I have xfce4 on the system, but haven't tried this exact test on it. I'll do that this evening and then off for Xmas. The problem seems just a bit different than purely focus though. If I run the game and an xterm I can Alt-Tab the xterm on top of the game and then select the xterm and do whatever I want in there. As long as the xterm is inside the game's wine (overlapping on top) there is no effect on the game. At this point, even with the xterm clearly in focus from the keyboard's point of view, if I take the mouse outside of the game's area, the game starts moving. I can even drag this xterm around the screen and while I'm dragging the xterm the game is scrolling underneath! In my mind this is sort of like the mouse messages are going two places - to the window manager to drag the xterm and to the game at the same time. I can select another app outside of the games area, but the game keeps following the mouse no matter which title bar is active.
