Don't refuse explicit window activation request just because the window
is not on the current desktop.
----------
QDialog or at least QMessageBox does this and I doubt Lubos' idea was to "allow
focus stealing if the client nags enough" - switching the VD is a major
interrupt and prevented when a new window shows up. It should not be possible
to stomp on ground and then receive focus - notably not on the other desktop.
I assume the original idea was to let clients distribute focus *inside* across
virtual desktops, maybe also permit when no client was active, but hardly
otherwise.
Reproducible: Always
