  Ok. Just to clarify what I'm talking about:

 <context name="Root">
    <mousebind button="Left" action="Press">
        <action name="NextWindow">
           <allDesktops>yes</allDesktops>
        </action>
    </mousebind>
 </context>

      Now, if you left-click on the root window, you get the dialog
and a properly selected window, but it will only be focused if you
press <Return>. If you use "Ctrl-Left" or any sort of modifier the
window will focus as soon as you release the key. You get the same
behaviour with the keybind. For example:

   <keybind key="Next">
      <action name="NextWindow"/>
   </keybind>
