bug#22068: 25.0.50; Delayed reaction to switching frames?

[David Kastrup]

>From a shell in a GUI with sloppy focus (assuming that they are all
similar, I am using GNOME here) do

emacs -Q
M-x set-variable RET focus-follows-mouse RET t RET
C-x C-f /tmp/testfile RET
C-x 5 2    and arrange frames side-by-side
M-! touch /tmp/testfile RET

Now move with the mouse from one frame to the other and immediately
press a key.  I get a message like

on the _old_ frame (the one I moved out of).  Apparently the frame
switch command gets delivered with some delay and the "changed on disk"
message, arriving late, does no longer manage to switch frames.

I cannot absolutely vouch that the window manager setting "sloppy"
(which can be selected with gnome-tweak-tool) is innocent of the
problem.  But there are no delay settings to select.
