That does seem to be the same issue, yes. Thanks for the link. I suspect I've 
got very old config files (I've been using sawfish since it was the default 
Gnome WM and really hate changing my productivity processes so try to keep 
everything the same - one of the reasons I'm still on sawfish).

So, I think the problem is from my custom file here:

(custom-set-keymap (quote title-keymap) (quote (keymap 
(move-window-interactively . "Button1-Move") (toggle-window-shaded . 
"Button1-Click2") (resize-window-interactively . "Button2-Move") 
(raise-lower-window . "Button3-Click1"))))

So, what should I have "raise-lower-window" set to in the s-expr to correctly 
get the focus? Also, these others are also set for clicks, not "offs" so what 
should I be changing them to?
