Thanks for the recipe; I now see the behaviour you're describing.

The thing is, in your setup, typing `M-x' selects the minibuffer frame
-- the *scratch* frame loses focus.  So I agree with what Eli said
earlier: I think this is consistent behaviour, and you have to examine
the event you're getting to see what frame the user clicked in.

So I'm closing this bug report.
