We can always make it un-detachable by default and have some frame parameter 
to turn it on.  But since there are uses for a detachable tool bar as Stephen 
points out, I'd rather not remove it until we really need to (i.e. when Gtk+ 
removes the API for it).

But as for the focus bug described here, focus setting is in the 
responsibility of the window manager.  If for instance you have click to 
focus, the behaviour described here is expected.

I'd rather see if the focus can be kept to the frame.  We can perhaps put some 
hints to the window manager.  I'll look in to it.  Can the OP please tell us 
what window manager he is using and what kind of focus model he has (click to 
focus, focus follows mouse)?
