Focus Policy



I have asked this several times before, and the answer offered was to switch to Sawfish WM. Unfortunately this no longer appears easy to do, as Sawfish has all but disappeared from various distributions, and Metacity is still impossible to set properly. I wonder if developers involved with Metacity realize that for many users focus policy makes or breaks the WM. I have been using Linux (and FreeBSD) since late 1993, and in the early days I adopted the TWM and FVWM focusing policy, which is IMHO the most effective policy if set up properly. When, after more than 10 years of doing things one way, Gnome WM forces me to adopt M$ focus policy, I find this distasteful.

So one more time, is there a way to set focus policy to focus follows pointer (properly), or is my only solution to switch to KDE?
