Case: The default settings on E16 for Elive are "all the new windows receives the focus" + "mouse-over focuses a window". The installation process of Elive (which has many dialogs poping up to ask questions) is a delicate step which a wrong key-press can make a wrong decision, to avoid that I used in the past (E17) a callback to set the focus options to "CLICK" and "NEWNEVER".

Now I'm implementing the same feature on E16, unfortunately eesh has only the "click/sloppy" options for the mouse behaviour but not the "newnever/newalways" ones for the new-windows behaviour.

Could be nice if they were included too as extra options for the focus management in eesh

All configuration settings in e16 (including all focus settings) can be set by "eesh set ...".
In this case I think "eesh set focus.all_new_windows_get_focus 1" should work?

Ah nice! I didn't know all the settings can be set modified using "set". Yes this one makes it working :)
