	Can you expand on what is going wrong ? possibly it's the control-frame
side, I think you want to do:

	bonobo_control_frame_set_autoactivate (frame, FALSE)

	in the shell; since otherwise as you gain / loose focus you'll get
activated / de-activated - a very odd, and pretty useless feature. This
does in fact default to FALSE, but ... possibly you turned it on ?

	Also until recently sawfish was doing very odd things with focus, so
you might like to make sure that's still working.

	Also, to help debug you could do: export ORBIT2_DEBUG=traces, and see
if you can see the traffic that messes around with it ?

	Let me know how you get on,

	Regards,

		Michael.
