If I may offer a suggestion, I would say that grabbing the focus
should necessitate a click. Even ignoring Alexander's problem, the
current implementation is broken (at least under Linux+Xorg+Xfce). If
the "max size" field has focus and I press the arrows I can adjust the
number. Then I move the mouse down to "allow upscaling", and the
arrows adjust this setting. Fine, but now I do the opposite action and
move the pointer back to "max size": for no good reason the arrows
keep controlling the "allow upscaling" setting. It must be either
focus-follows-pointer or focus-follows-click, while now it seems to be
a random mix of these.
Yours,
Marcello Mamino.
