[Bug 1427636] Re: Desktop doesn't get keyboard focus
I can only seem to reproduce this when I have "General Options->Focus &
Raise Behavior->Click To Focus" unchecked.
I believe this is a Compiz issue and was probably introduced when I
tried to handle the Gtk X input stuff introduced in 14.04, which has
been a total pain.
I'll give it a look and see if I can come up with a solution for this
without breaking everything else.

Bug description:
When a window application is open, the desktop icons can get mouse
focus but the keyboard event are send to the last window. Trying
renaming or deleting files on the desktop with the keyboard is
impossible in this scenario.
I have the focus mode "follow the mouse", but reverting to the default
setting has the same problem.
Also have a look at this question on Ask Ubuntu

I'm using Ubuntu 14.10 but this problem also happened on 14.04 (and I
