Is not the Emacs window focus > what a user is interested in mostly here? For frame focus the window manager > probably have good support that the user is using regardless of the app. The original message said: However I might just want to select that window to resize it so AFAICT this whole thread has been about a confusion between "click mouse-1 to follow link" and "click mouse-1 to give focus to a *frame*". Of course maybe he really meant "window", but that seems rather unlikely to me. This said, I agree that I'd have expected the window-manager to take care of such things (basically the window-manager shouldn't pass on a mouse-1 click to the application if it was used to change focus).
