If Lenience fixes the problem, the window is not indicating that
it accepts input.

Here's the section of the Fvwm man page:

  The ICCCM states that windows possessing the property

  WM_HINTS(WM_HINTS):
      Client accepts input or input focus: False

  should  not   be  given   the  keyboard  input   focus  by   the  window
  manager.  These  windows  can  take   the  input  focus  by  themselves,
  however. A number of applications set  this property, and yet expect the
  window manager to give them the  keyboard focus anyway, so fvwm provides
  a  window style,  Lenience, which  allows  fvwm to  overlook this  ICCCM
  rule.  Even  with this  window  style  it  is  not guaranteed  that  the
  application accepts focus.

also there is this:

Setting the input hint to False is correct, along with WM_TAKE_FOCUS it
specifies that we use the Globally Active model. Whatever the bug may be,
that's not it.

Does fvwm send the WM_TAKE_FOCUS client message as described in
http://tronche.com/gui/x/icccm/sec-4.html#s-4.1.7?



that's what i have in my inbox when this was last raised.

basically i think the two teams should get in touch and
sort this out, it's no good end-users being in the middle
and being forced to a) edit window manager config files
as workarounds b) play the "let's raise a bugreport and
have it closed by the wine team yet again" game.
