[Xquartz-dev] Intermittent loss of input focus?

Another focus stealer for me turned out to be google drive. It didn't 
just steal focus from Xquartz, it stole focus from anything. And it did 
so every half hour, when it tried to figure out if it was going to 
update itself. So I disabled it. (That was months ago, so I may remember 
some details wrong.) Perhaps it is fixed now? I searched around at the 
time, and was surprised not to find any discussion of the problem. Which 
makes me wonder if it was an interaction with something else on my 
computer, which wouldn't bite many people.
