No, definitely not with my (non-default) setup. Selecting a frame does not give
it the input focus.
Hence my need to call `select-frame-set-input-focus' in a few places. And, I
would guess, hence the existence of two different functions: `select-frame' and
`s-f-s-i-f'.
I'm no expert on any of this, obviously. I added `s-f-s-i-f' long ago where I
found I needed it - `select-frame' was not sufficient.

But see above.
