Not sure I understand.
1. That does not select a window in another frame if you move the mouse to
it, regardless of the setting of focus-follows-mouse (on MS Windows).
2. It doesn't change the behavior of window selection within the same frame
(on MS Windows). On MS Windows, focus-follows-mouse has no effect. (So that
sentence should also not be removed from the doc.)
I think your fix might be needed for GNU/Linux etc. - I don't know. Looking
at it, it makes sense. But it does not address any issues I raised, AFAICT.
BTW (did I mention this?) - the doc string for focus-follows-mouse should
say that it is about frames, not about focus in windows (which might be in
the same frame).
