Fix longstanding focus bug with mouse (not sloppy) focus mode with popup

2006-10-01  Elijah Newren  <newren gmail com>

	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)
