Subject: 23.2; emacs --daemon; involuntary frame switching
Date: Thu, 19 Aug 2010 10:14:29 -0400

The scenario (confirmed with emacs -Q --daemon):

1) run emacs --daemon
2a) in one text based console I open a client
2b) in this client I open a second frame
2c) switch to the second frame to work on something
3) open another client in a different text based terminal

-- now I have 3 frames, two in one terminal, one in another --

4) in the 2nd (one frame) terminal I do M-x in order
   to type in a command (or do any command which prompts
   via the minibuffer)

the RESULT: 

emacs switches to the first opened frame in the first console client
session.  this is not what I want to happen. In fact, I want nothing to
happen, the first session should simply stay in the frame state it was
in.

Any ideas? Anyone seen this behavior before? Thanks in advance!

Thanks,
~Arik
