Some people will love it, and they will use it. Some people will hate it, and they won't use it. If it's optional, nobody gets hurt, so go for it. I made a half-hearted stab at a prototype (in Python) once, I'll see if I can dig it up. One thing that came up is that focus-follows-mouse will be really screwy, if in the motion from an app's window to the top menu bar, your mouse goes over (and focuses) another window. Unfortunately, I happen to like focus-follows-mouse. But that's an edge case we can deal with later... _______________________________________________ Usability mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/usability
