Summary: Focus last window on workspace fails
Initial Comment:
'Focus last window on workspace' only works, if some window on
the previous workspace had focus. If nothing had focus (eg empy
workspace), focus is lost.
This behaviour is independent from the chosen focus model (click
to/sloppy). It worked in 0.65.

this is the intended behavior... certain types of windows will not keep
focus when changing workspaces (like bbpager, the kde/gnome panels,
etc.). howerver, normal windows will keep focus

Thanks, the combination with bbpager works fine for me now.
One thing I've noticed unchanged: If a sticky window -- say xosview or a
terminal/console -- has focus, it retains focus when entering another
workspace, even if on that workspace another window had focus before.
Happens regularly when no bbpager is running: Upon entering a
workspace that is empty except for (sticky) xosview, the performance-o-
meter gets focus and won't let go of it any more.

ahh... now i understand... it does seem a bit strange that bbpager
doesn't allow focus to be passed to the last focused window... i also see
this when using the pager with the KDE pager... i've fixed this now...

Indeed, upon further investigation I found that bbpager triggers this
behaviour...
It seems that, upon entering an otherwise empty page, the pager (or, if
there is no pager, any other sticky window) receives focus and keeps it
when reentering a workspace with a window that had focus before.
Now, I'm not sure if this is the sticky windows fault or if this should be
considered a feature, not a bug :)
IMHO 'Focus last window on workspace' should give focus on a newly
entered workspace to the window that had it there before, regardless of
the 'sticky'-state the focused window on the previous workspace had.

i can't reproduce this... works just fine for me, regardless of whether a
window previously had focus or not.

Sorry, I forgot to mention: I'm using beta2; however cvs from 5min ago
shows the error as well.
All I did was:
- edit mk.sh (change the path to aclocal)
- ./mk.sh
- ./configure --disable-nls
- make
- run
If you want to, I can send you my config.log or even the binary (1.8MB
zipped)

this didn't work in beta1, yet it does work in beta2 and CVS, which are
you using?
