I don't follow.  If the WM does "Raise on focus", surely it will raise
the frame no matter how it acquires the focus.  Such focus is here
essential for the working of the minibuffer.

Is it not the case that acquiring the focus with Fx_focus_frame would be
better than not doing so?

I'm not sure how simple that would be.  Have you a patch to propose?

The state we're in at the moment is that the cause of the bug has been
tentatively identified and a fix proposed (see one of my posts from
yesterday).  This fix would be too risky for the release branch, so we
need a "safe" workaround for that branch.

I've a vague memory of checking this was OK at the time of the change.
I can't remember many of the details now, though.
