No. I use `mouse-position' and it gives the position where the mouse
pointer crosses the window border, in the window I move to. I didn't
try `mouse-pixel-position' but IMO it would be a bug if it did refer to
another position.

A simple delay is standard for focus follows mouse policies. I don't
really want to omit that.

You can always set the delay to a very small value. In my experience
less than 0.2 seconds never sensibly delays selection but may select the
window too quickly. It depends on your mouse mileage though, personally
I like nervous mice.

It's been one of my first attempts to deal with the problem (and I used
exactly 0.1 seconds IIRC). It didn't work reliably though, and I didn't
try to find out why. Maybe another timer ...

What about a cons with the delay in the car and a boolean for
"dont-select-while-mouse-moves" in the cdr?
