Commit 2fc880db switched from focusing the topmost window as the default
window to focusing the MRU window. This was done in alignment with the
introduction of per-workspace MRU lists to avoid problems where the window
stack was inadvertently changed when focusing windows during window switches.
Now that focusing windows don't have as big an impact on the stacking order,
we can revert back to focusing the top window, which is less confusing to the
user.
For now, leave per-workspace MRU lists, as they're a pretty good approximation
of a global MRU list, and it works well enough.

Fix lots of little issues with min/max constraints and size
increment constraints. Fixes#329152, #418395, and possibly
others.
* src/window-props.c (meta_set_normal_hints):
Do more checking to make sure application specified constraints
are self-consistent, modifying the size_hints as necessary to
achieve self-consistency.
* src/constraints.c (setup_constraint_info): remove ugly
copy-pasto, (constrain_size_increments): be careful that fixing
violation of the constraints doesn't cause a violation of the
minimum size constraints.
* src/window.c (ensure_size_hints_satisfied): new function,
(meta_window_unmaximize, meta_window_unmake_fullscreen): the
saved_rect may no longer be valid (as in the case of #329152) so
call ensure_size_hints_satisfied to fix it up.
* doc/how-to-get-focus-right.txt: Some minor spacing and wording
fixes completely unrelated to the rest of this commit

Fix longstanding focus bug with mouse (not sloppy) focus mode with
popup override-redirect windows, particularly mozilla and
firefox's location bar autocompletion. #357695.
* src/display.c (event_callback -- EnterNotify & LeaveNotify events):
for mouse focus, defocus the focused window when the mouse enters
the desktop window rather than when the mouse leaves the focused
window.
* doc/how-to-get-focus-right.txt:
update for the slightly nuanced definition of mouse focus (people
without a DESKTOP window like nautilus get sloppy focus behavior
now)
2005-02-21 Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>
Handle keynav vs. mousenav in mouse and sloppy focus modes. Fixes
#167545.
* doc/how-to-get-focus-right.txt: Update due to this new method
for handling keynav vs. mousenav, plus various other updates that
I previously forgot.
* src/display.h: (struct _MetaDisplay): add a mouse_mode boolean
* src/display.c: (meta_display_open): initialize mouse_mode to
true, (event_callback): have EnterNotify and LeaveNotify events
set mouse_mode to true when focusing a window
* src/keybindings.c: (process_tab_grab): set mouse_mode to false
when using alt-tab/alt-esc, (do_choose_window): likewise,
(do_handle_move_to_workspace): set mouse_mode to false on
move-window-to-workspace-<n> keybindings
* src/window.c (idle_calc_showing): if we're in keynav mode while
using sloppy or mouse focus, use metacity_sentinel to avoid
EnterNotify events being generated from events other than mouse
movement.
* src/workspace.c (meta_workspace_activate_with_focus): add a
FIXME in a potentially duplicate section of code,
(meta_workspace_focus_default_window): use the same focus choice
as click-to-focus if in keynav mode.

Focus parents of dismissed transient windows in preference to the
window that most recently had keyboard focus. Fixes#157360.
* doc/how-to-get-focus-right.txt: Note the distinction between
"most recently used window" and "most recent to have keyboard
focus" that we are now making.
* src/workspace.c: (focus_ancestor_or_mru_window): rename from
meta_workspace_focus_mru_window, and first check whether we need
to focus an ancestor window before looking for the mru window,
(record_ancestor): helper function for
focus_ancestor_or_mru_window,
(meta_workspace_focus_default_window): update due to the function
rename from meta_workspace_focus_mru_window to
focus_ancestor_or_mru_window

Don't focus the panel on click. Fixes#160470 (and 100470 and
removes the need for the hack from 128200)
* doc/how-to-get-focus-right.txt: Update section on focusing
non-decorated windows (specifically, DOCKS and DESKTOPS)
* src/display.c (event_callback): don't focus dock windows on
click
2004-09-15 Elijah Newren <newren@math.utah.edu>
Focus the no_focus_window if no suitable window is in the mru list
(should fix the almost contrived extra issue found in #147475)
* doc/how-to-get-focus-right.txt: We no longer need to lie about
only focusing panels upon explicit request.
* src/workspace.c: (meta_workspace_focus_top_window): removed this
function--it was more code than needed and was unreliable anyway,
(meta_workspace_focus_mru_window): if a suitable window isn't in
the mru list, focus the no_focus_window instead of calling
focus_top_window.
2004-09-07 Elijah Newren <newren@math.utah.edu>
Add a new write-up on making window focus consistent (see #152004)
* doc/how-to-get-focus-right.txt: New document
* rationales.txt: Remove references to focus bugs, instead point
to doc/how-to-get-focus-right.txt
