From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:0.9.2+) Gecko/20010708 BuildID: 2001070808 Each new Mozilla window grabs focus twice, which is one time too many. The first focus is when middle-click opening a new link, which is fine. Newly opened windows should get focus. The second focus is when the window starts drawing stuff for the first time. This is completely unnecessary, and it's very annoying. The slower your connection (or server) the more annoying this gets. Especially with discussion forums I load several pages at once, because the server or the connection often lags. In practise this means that I have to switch windows constantly just to keep reading the contents of one window. If three pages load for about a minute each, this gets quite annoying as the each steal focus on first draw. Please fix. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to a page with a lot of links, such as a a discussion forum 2. Middle-click a link open in a new window 3. Switch back to the original page to open a third window, or just read the original page 4. In a little while the new window steals focus as it starts drawing stuff Actual Results: The window focus kept changing Expected Results: The focus should remain in the window you last switched to after opening the new window
