Window focus after a window is closed

Hello,

I'm very happy with Window Maker (0.91.0 on Debian 3.1), except for
one problem. Sometimes when I have three or more windows in a
workspace and close one of them, focus goes to a window that is not on
top, often resulting in me sending keyboard commands to the wrong
window. I use "manual input focus mode", "automatically focus new
windows" and "raise window when switching focus with keyboard".

An example of a situation where this happens is when I start three
xterms (they will overlap because of lack of space), issue a single
Alt-Tab and then close the topmost window.

Is there a configuration variable I can set to make sure that the
topmost remaining window gets focus when a window is closed? I
couldn't find anything here:
http://windowmaker.org/documentation-userguide-chapter4.html. Or
should I make a feature request?

I also seem to recall that I didn't have this problem with 0.80.

Thanks!

Ole Edsberg
