I'm wondering, are you only interested in focusing windows that are
visible with a number? Because you can do that with the 'fselect'
command (which is what rpshowall.sh uses, except that it first creates
new frames to make all windows visible).

On my machine it seems to be mostly caused by every application having
to resize itself.

PS: I noticed I missed the following in your original email:

I think the 'swap' command might do what you want.
