mmmmm.. define "not working"; they changed a bit in how they work, but that was to fix other issues. passive doesn't mean "can't get focus" > Please help me at least with issue one.

Cheap i wonder if it would be possible to track the last-focused window and just send x events directly to it. but yes, otherwise .. hm ... i think that the keyboard would need to handle it's own popup window and ensure it never gets focus. putting that into passive popup as a general case situation will screw up other widgets that do need focus; perhaps we can fold it into popupapplet for 4.4 if there's a general need for it. -- Aaron J.
