Description:
	If you have SloppyFocus, and the mouse positionned on the
	window border (or title bar) of an unfocussed window, whenever
	unclutter hides the cursor, the window on which (or more
	accurately on whose border) the cursor is positionned gets
	focussed.

	Sometimes you can't just switch back by Keyboard control; fvwm
	will just quickly focus the window you want to focus and give
	the focus immediately back to the window having its cursor over
	it.

Repeat-By:
	Minimal Config:
	Style   *       SloppyFocus
	Key     Tab     A       M       Next [*] Focus

	Steps to perform:

	1) Open two xterms.
	2) Move the mouse on the title bar or border of one of these xterms.
	3) Switch windows with Alt-Tab (but leave the mouse pointer where it is)
	4) Wait --- When unclutter hides the mouse pointer, focus is switched
	5) Even more annoyingly, you can't switch back with Alt-Tab, it will
	   immediately switch back again.

Probably-Related:
	Similar problem as reported by Paul D. Smith on May, 1st.
	However, my problem only occurs in window-borders; not
	everywhere. (Otherwise it appears to be the same thing.)
