No, please do not do this. A user should be able to select different buffers and windows, including by clicking the mouse or using keyboard keys, while the minibuffer is active. A user should be able to do all kinds of things while the minibuffer is active - including come back to the minibuffer to continue inputting text there etc.
Agreed.But, if using GNU Emacs 24.4 or later, perhaps make use of `focus-in-hook`? For example, something along the lines of:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp(defun focus-to-active-minibuffer () (if (minibuffer-window-active-p (minibuffer-window)) (select-window (minibuffer-window)))) (add-hook 'focus-in-hook #'focus-to-active-minibuffer)
#+END_SRC Alexis.
