Hm, this was a bit interesting regarding GIMP on w32. I have long
wondered why they do not fix the bug that it does not grab focus and
that it is also very hard to give it focus on w32. Apparently there
must be some misunderstanding in the use of the w32 API for focusing.
And it might be the GTK part that has a bug there. Anyone knows where
to file a bug about this?
