Patch from Ron Yorston to add a focus_new_windows option. Default is

2006-04-12  Elijah Newren  <newren gmail com>

	Patch from Ron Yorston to add a focus_new_windows option.  Default
	is 'smart' (focus by default but normal focus-stealing-prevention
	can kick in); 'strict' is current other choice (like 'smart'
	except that programs launched by the terminal will not be
	focused).  Fixes remainder of #326159.  Should also close #152004
	and a bunch of others.

	* src/common.h:
	Add a MetaFocusNewWindows enum giving the current types allowed

	* src/display.h:
	Update docs on allow_terminal_deactivation to note that it is only
	relevant when focus_new_windows is 'strict'

	* src/prefs.c:
	* src/prefs.h:

	* src/metacity.schemas.in: add the new gconf key and explanation

	* src/prefs.[ch] (#define KEY_FOCUS_NEW_WINDOWS, static gboolean
	  focus_new_windows, update_focus_new_windows, meta_prefs_init,
	  change_notify, meta_prefs_get_focus_new_windows,
	  meta_preference_to_string):
	Add all the normal preference handling stuff for this new
	focus-new-windows option.

	* src/window.c (window_state_on_map, meta_window_set_user_time):
	Don't focus windows launched from a terminal
