On Apple X11 mailing-list  
(http://lists.apple.com/archives/x11-users/2003/Jan/10/ 
windowplacementrequestsi.txt) I've found that the following rule is  
used:

1. if USPosition is set, use it

Is it what WingIDE does ?

I've only found how to switch to a follow-focus behaviour but not how  
to stick to click-to-focus with passing the clicks to the just-raised  
window. Would you know whether XDarwin/OroborX has the latter right?

I have a project file.
