The option "automatically focus new windows" has to be deactivated in WindowMaker.The problem here is, if you open a new window and close it, say the Info Panel, Window Maker will set the focus back to the last X11 window, eg, the xterm you used to launch the application - which is quite annoying as the whole app will be hidden.
I've looked into this and it seems obvious that Menu's shouldn't be able to become key (like they do now).
Unfortuneatly, fixing this shows another problem: Apparently WindowMaker doesn't allow the application icon to become key (i.e. get input focus). So if there are no open windows, the app doesn't receive key presses (like Cmd-q, etc). If anyone knows why this is or if it's a bug, let me know...
Or maybe the menu should be able to become key, but only as a last resort? That's seems too complicated, though.
