Title:
  No option to disable 'raise on click' in Window Preferences

Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

  The Window Preferences control panel does not have any option to
  disable raise-on-click behaviour in Metacity. Instead I have to use
  gconf-editor to disable it manually.

  Raise-on-click makes focus-follows-mouse mode largely useless; the
  whole point of focus-follows-mouse mode is to allow the user to
  interact with windows other than the one at the front. Forcing raise-
  on-click means that this isn't possible (interacting with the window
  will cause it to be raised). It's a major usability issue.
