Thanks for your answer Jaimos.

It seems that the issue was that FPGrabFocus, implicitly set when using
ClickToFocus, was overridden by this line, to which I didn't pay enough
attention, in the default config file:

Style * TileCascadePlacement, GrabFocusOff, !UsePPosition

Removing GrabFocusOff from it did the trick.

Have a nice day,
