It's sloppy focus that keeps the focus to the last window before root (in mouse cursor move). This will not get applied. Think Matthias left sloppy focus for later implementation, because he wanted to correlate it with the new worldwide wm spec. > - Changing window decorations on-the-fly doesn't work correctly, nor is the > Be mode saved correctly.

Mosfet left this for future implementation. There still is a lot of work on the styling mechanism.

Matthias already knows about this bug. He once fixed it, but seems he reverted it accidentally. Thanks Cristian Tibirna
