Many actions (e.g. clicking in the client area, moving or
resizing the window) normally raise the window as a side-effect.
Set this option to false to decouple raising from other user
interactions. When false, windows can still be raised by an
alt-left-click anywhere on the window or a normal click on the
window decorations (assuming such clicks aren't used to start a
move or resize operation). Special messages, such as activation
requests from pagers, may also raise windows when this option is
false. This option is currently disabled in click-to-focus

If true, and the focus mode is either "sloppy" or "mouse"
If set to true, and the focus mode is either "sloppy" or "mouse"
then the focused window will be automatically raised after a
delay (the delay is specified by the auto_raise_delay key).
This preference is poorly named, but kept for backwards
compatibility. To try to be more clear (at least to the
technically inclined), its meaning is "automatically raise
the window following a timeout which is triggered by
non-grabbed mouse entry in sloppy or mouse focus modes". It
is unrelated to clicking behavior (i.e. this is not related
to raise-on-click/orthogonal-raise). It is unrelated to
entering a window during drag and drop (because that results
in the application grabbing the mouse)

to clicking on a window to raise it, nor to entering a window

<short>(Not implemented) Navigation works in terms of applications not windows</short>
<long>
If true, then Metacity works in terms of applications rather
than windows. The concept is a bit abstract, but
in general an application-based setup is more like
the Mac and less like Windows. When you focus a window
in application-based mode, all the windows in the
application will be raised. Also, in application-based
mode, focus clicks are not passed through to windows
in other applications.
The existence of this setting is somewhat questionable.
But it's better than having settings for all the specific
details of application-based vs. window-based, e.g.
whether to pass through clicks. Also, application-based mode
is largely unimplemented at the moment.

<short>Disable misfeatures that are required by old or broken
applications</short>
<long>
Some applications break specifications in ways that result
in window manager misfeatures. For example, ideally Metacity
would place all dialogs in a consistent position with
respect to their parent window. This requires ignoring
application-specified positions for dialogs. But some
versions of Java/Swing mark their popup menus as dialogs,
so Metacity has to disable dialog positioning to allow
menus to work in broken Java applications. There are
several other examples like this.
This option puts Metacity in full-on Correct mode, which
perhaps gives a moderately nicer UI if you don't need to run
any broken apps. Sadly, workarounds must be enabled by
default; the real world is an ugly place.
Some of the workarounds are workarounds for limitations in
the specifications themselves, so sometimes a bug
in no-workarounds mode won't be fixable without
amending a spec.
Some applications disregard specifications in ways that result in
window manager misfeatures. This option puts Metacity in a
rigorously correct mode, which gives a more consistent user
interface, provided one does not need to run any misbehaving
applications.
