I'm going to take a look into it, here's what I see so far: using focus-follows-mouse, click 'write' in thunderbird. Place the mouse directly _UNDER_ the To: text field, and press any character. The address completion window pops up, then instantly closes, chosing the first completion and pasting into the text field. Placing the mouse anywhere where it will not intersect with the text window will not cause this behavior.
A similar problem happens with firefox/mozilla suite URL completion - if I type quickly, focus bounces around and characters drop. Having to slow my typing down to a hunt-and-peck speed is extremely obnoxious. I'm not positive, but it looks like if a child window opens under the cursor, it gets a focus _AND_ click event. I'm going to do some event tracing to see what I can find. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
