Swallow focusing clicks?

Duh.  It turns out that I'm too stupid to do this.  I found the
function mouse_event in mouse.c which replays events in the client
context.  So I thought if I replay fewer events, then Bob's my uncle.
As a first test, I thought that I could swallow all events inside
client windows that didn't have focus.

    gboolean has_focus = ( client == focus_client );

This line seems to do the right thing, as I discovered via
printf-debugging.

Then I extended the condition guarding the replaying to only replay if
the window had focus.  This, however, makes OpenBox hang.  And I have
no idea what I might have done wrong.

Any help?
