Please aquire window focus with fvwm2 window manager

[sven@…]

Hi,
this is a forward of a bugreport we received in the Debian BTS for lyx-qt. You
can find the original bugreport here:
​http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=261414

The fvwm2 window manager seems to do something different and the focus for the
search window and others is not auto aquired within lyx. Other Qt applications
seem to know a way around this problem.

Text of the original bugreport:
"""
Hello,

it would be nice, if lyx-qt would acquire the window focus for
new windows like Find (Ctrl-f), but also windows like Layout->
Document.

This helps people (like me :)) with keyboardFocusPolicy: pointer
to type in the window they have just actually requested even
if the mouse pointer is somewhere else.

Mozilla does that for example with it's Find window (Ctrl-f).

lyx-xforms seems to achieve this by placing new windows somewhere
'under' the mouse pointer (somewhere 'around' the current mouse
pointer position) so that they get focused automatically.

Unfortunately, lyx-qt seems to place windows just 'somewhere' -
completely independent of the current mouse pointer position.
Thus, it would help to just request the window focus for fresh
openend windows.

Should be fixed in LyX 1.6.0. reopen if not.
