Summary:                    Changing workspace does not give focus to an app
Description: 
When changing workspace, no application has the focus in the workspace
(i.e. the application that had the focus keeps it in the old workspace).

It is annoying because it is necessary to give the focus with an
additional step.

I think that the focus should be given to the app that had the focus in
the workspace the last time we were in this wokspace.

are you using the pager on the panel to change workspaces?  if so, this is
normal, as the panel will retain the focus.  if you're using a keyboard
shortcut or scrolling the mouse, then yeah, sounds like a bug.

also - 4.0.x or CVS?

Yes, this problem occurs with mouse scrolling or keyboard shortcut, but not
when clicking on the mini-window in the pager. And I am using version
4.O.6.

Thank you for your quick response !
