The focus behavior of most window managers can be configured to be
either 'focus follow mous' or 'click to focus' (I believe these are how
the options are called). Probably twm can be configured too.

So I believe this problem only happens in relative corner cases: some
window managers and only when they are configured for focus follows
mouse. And I would not worry much about TWM as nobody in their right
mind would you it. People use modern window managers nowadays... like
fvwm95 ;-)
