The usual rationale people give for strict follows-mouse though is
that they want to "disable" the keyboard by moving the pointer out of
all windows. I've heard this a few times. So they might be annoyed.
I'd say the desktop should be click-to-focus regardless of focus mode,
and also get focus if you push the "minimize all windows" hotkey.
KDE actually has a "minimize all windows and focus desktop" button on
the panel, but I'm not sure that's worth the clutter on the default
panel.
