Comment (by brecht):

 I haven't been following the latest developments, so I don't know if the
 behaviour has been changed before. Personally, I find the "click to focus"
 mode comfortable to use (obviously, having implemented it). I don't agree
 that it should be changed to act more like the other mouse modes, as that
 kind of defeats the purpose.

 The way the mode was initially implemented allowed the user to raise/lower
 a window while dragging it. I guess that is no longer possible now?

 As for the naming of the modes, I agree it could be improved upon. It was
 already dicussed in this thread, where some more descriptive names have
 been proposed:
