Hi,

I'm running 8.1-RC2 (metacity 2.30.1) and focus-follows-mouse simply 
doesn't work. I think this is a metactity bug or something, maybe this 
is related:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=155450

Any workaround to have focus-follows-mouse again would be greatly 
appreciated, as I hate cliking on windows to focus them.

Cheers,
Antonio
