You are welcome ;-) Don't hesitate to correct my poor C code, thanks.

So here the final patch I could push if Eli is ok after looking the
comments in previous mail; I had prefered also adding the changes to
simple.el in same commit when i know how to do, basically it is just how/where
to add:

(setq while-no-input-ignore-events 
      '(focus-in focus-out help iconify deiconify selection-request))

Here the last patch:
