I didn't have focus-follows-mouse turned on. If it were on, and if the new frame did not happen to show up under the mouse, it would not be selected, right? No, that variable is meant to tell Emacs what the window manager does. I guess you're saying that when a frame is created it is always given the focus. That's too bad. I am saying that the system decides what frame gets focus.
