Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
  New
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Button-click on icon(in some window manager) brings focus to window contains that item, obstacles drag-n-drop:
  Reproduction steps:
  1. Open some Multi-media player, ex. totem.
  2. Open some directory contains multi-media files in Nautilus
  3. Maximize Nautilus
  3. resize totem to quarter of your screen, position it to top-right corner.
  4. Make sure Totem is above nautilus, and totem doesn't cover your multi-media files.
  5. Try to Drag-n-Drop some file from Nautilus to Totem.
  6. You'll notice that:
   On Click, Nautilus gets focus and totem loses it, thus obstacles drag-n-drop.

  Suggested Fix:
   1. Window manager should get focus if user clicked on area of the window, except for items(icons).
   2. Button_Clicking on icons in window manager, should not change focus state.
