redhat-6.0: New Enlightenment focus behaviour

[Fred Richardson <frichard bbn com>]

Hi-

I sent this email directly to a developer, but then it occurred to me
that someone on this list might know the answer.  Does anyone know
what's changed with the focus?  I've decided to use WindowMaker
which seems to do the right thing with the Emacs-frame focus.
    
        Thanks,

            -Fred

| Michael,
| 
| I've been running the redhat-6.0 release of enlightement:
|      enlightenment-0.15.5-32
| 
| and I've found that focusing seems messed up compared to a previous
| version (from RawHide-1.3.4):
|      enlightenment-0.15.5-14
| 
| Specifically, if I switch frames in Emacs using `M-x other-frame',
| I've found that the other frame never get the focus correctly (nor
| does it ever get raised).  I generally turn on sloppy-focusing and set
| everything else to the defaults.  This used to work with the RawHide
| version of Enlightenment.
| 
| Looking at change in the Enlightenment RPM's ChangeLog (since
| 0.15.5-14), I was wondering if this change might 
| have something to do with the new focus behaviour:
