That sounds like a misfeature to me: it's very easy to make small
mouse movements just by tapping on the table or on the keyboard. Some
users might become annoyed enough to not use the feature, just because
of this.
How about if window reselection will only be done if the mouse is in a
window different from the one it was the last time, at least as a user
option?
