Comment 14 for bug 762032

I would like to politely correct the author of post #11, who says this is only "a particular use-case." The author is mistaken to believe that the (well written) steps to reproduction make it sound like this is an obscure use case, whereas this is actually substantial use case, as iterated in post #12.

Up until *now*, the ability to have coexistence of ALT-TAB and mouse-hover-focus has been an extremely useful way of choosing where to focus. And, it has been supported quite well in numerous windowing systems, including GNOME.

But now it is broken; And it is broken in an obscure way, which necessitates the complex reproduction instructions of this bug report.
