When there is no project started, gnotime repeatedly pops up dialogs
asking if it should start one. This wouldn't be so bad, except that:

    1. It does it every few minutes, even when you hit cancel.

    2. The dialogs steal the focus, causing you to lose whatever you
       were typing into any other X client. This is quite annoying in
       itself (especially when you're typing a document and not looking
       at the screen). 

    3. Even if you re-focus the other X client, gnotime steals the focus
       again. It seems it re-focuses this dialog at least once a second
       until you dismiss it (but then see [1], it'll be back).

    4. The dialogs can pop up on an invisible portion of the desktop
       (e.g., after using Enlightenment's desktop dragbar). Combined
       with (2) and (3) above, you wind up with an invisible window on
       another desktop refusing to let any other X client have focus.

I have my window manager, Enlightenment, set to only give new dialogs
focus if their parent window is focused and gnotime was most certainly
not. Please let the window manager do its job, and don't steal the
focus.
