I saw the same problem with focus-follows-mouse set to nil, so I guess there
is a bug.

Why should it be disturbing? AFAIK all it does is `select-frame', right?

Great ;-)

I was thinking of the WM raising the window not because of auto-raise but
because of click-to-focus and more generally because it wants to impose
a policy where "focus'd frame is never behind another".
