Well, no :( I don't have ubuntu linux, so maybe they have additional
patches which conflicts somehow? Have anybody else tried the patch? If
you are a developer you may add some printf() to focus_cycle() so you
can see whether the parameter "opaque" is set or not. If I found some
time, I will try to compile it with ubuntu sources.

I have little time, and I developed the patch because I was really
missing that feature ;-) I will surely have a look at the
directional-focus actions next days (maybe the functionality is easy
to adopt), but I don't know weather I will really add the feature there.
