-It's funny to see how we use this stuff in different ways. I
-constantly nudge the pointer to a covered window (partially covered, I
-can see the first few columns) to type a command or answer a prompt
-without raising the window. I use FvwmAuto with a 4-second delay, so
-if I really need to see the entire window I can just leave the pointer
-there and it'll pop up.

Let me clarify. By deliberatly select I mean pointing and clicking.
I do exactly the same as you (Followfocus without the window coming up)
and just starting to experiment with the AutoRaise.

But if you click on the window, it comes up. Very consistent behavior.

BTW it prompts another question: if clicking on the window selects it
but doesn't raise it, then how does one raise the window short of going
to the middle button menu?

I think FollowFocus and Autoraise is a good team. I just can't see how to
divorce ClickFocus and raising the window on click.
