Bug ID: 364689
Summary: Prevent/delay focus stealing while typing
Product: kwin
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: rules
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: naught...@gmail.com
I have focus stealing prevention turned off, generally, because I like to be
notified if something requires my attention (e.g. password inputs, chat
messages etc). However, when multiple things are happening at once, it can
happen that you're half way through typing something, focus is stolen, and you
end up typing the rest in the wrong window. This can be problematic at times:
for example, accidentally pressing the wrong ok/cancel button in a new dialogue
window, or accidentally sexting your grandmother...
It would be great if there was an option to turn focus stealing prevention on
only while typing - so, for example, if I press any key, focus stealing is
prevented for the next 1000ms (configurable). It would be ideal if focus
stealing was optionally delayed, instead of prevented: so one second after I
stop typing, and I'm looking at the screen, thinking, and the new window pops
up, and I can react intentionally, instead of accidentally.
Reproducible: Always
