A relevant question occurs to me: Do you have your window manager 
set on "click to focus" or "focus follows mouse"?  I have the 
latter.

In any case, I think the behaviour that most users would expect 
is: when the window you left with an uncommitted edit regains 
focus, the uncommitted edit would still be there, and still 
uncommitted.
