Package: sawfish-gnome
Version: 1:1.2-3
Severity: normal
After some testing, it seems the bug is on sawfish's side as it does not
appear with other window managers (metacity for example).
If some window has the focus and the current workspace is switched (using key
bindings) to another one with a terminal window (tested with gnome-terminal
and xterm) right where the mouse cursor actually is, this window gains focus
(which is pretty intuitively normal) but then its text cursor never changes
again to unfocused style (empty block) when the window looses focus.
It may have something to do with the way workspace switches are handled by
sawfish. It appears that with metacity, the handling is done by gnome (and
then is done right).
The bug may seem rather cosmetic, but it annoys me pretty much as I got used
to determine the focus of a terminal window in a glimpse by the shape of the
text cursor...
