A GNOME related forum is not a very good place to ask your opinion on
inclusion of specific features; the best place for submitting patches is
Bugzilla. Otherwise the chance of having it accepted into GNOME is very
low, since the developers can obviously not actively monitor every such
forum.

Also, if you have a solution for the problems mentioned in prior
discussions (focus follows mouse, integration of third party
applications, etc.) that was not already proposed, we would like to hear
it. But please try avoid to restart this discussion without new ideas,
as repetition of the same arguments is not going to help the debate.
