Summary:                    Undocked toolbars
Description: 
There's a problem with undocked menu bars and icon bars. If a dialog is
opened, the main window doesn't get the focus but the toolbar.

To reproduce, do following:

 1. Open gftp (2.0.17)
 2. Drag the || (left) at the toolbar to make it floating.
 3. Focus the main window.
 4. Help -> About
 5. Close
 6. Type a few characters, you'll see that the input focus is at the
    "Host" field.

Or:

   1. Open Konqueror (KDE 3.2.2)
 2. Double click the || (left) at the toolbar to make it floating.
 3. Focus the main window.
 4. Help -> About KDE
 5. Close
 6. You'll see optically that the focus is at the toolbar.


One solution could be to exclude _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_TOOLBAR from getting
automatically the focus if another window is closed. Consider also
_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_MENU and even _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_UTILITY.

The gftp problem is from gftp, it's not a bug with xfwm4. It shows in
metacity too.
