	The behaviour you want should be the default behaviour. I run an Epoch
	under GWM, not click-to-type, and moving the mouse from one screen to
	another switches the current screen, and moving the mouse out of any
	screen causes the text cursor to switch to a hollow block. Try running
	an Epoch with the -q flag to test it.
	
	On the other hand, there is a bug involving passive grabs on Epoch
	screens, where Epoch thinks it has the focus until another FocusOut
	event. This happens when the WM traps a keystroke on an Epoch screen.
	It seems to be fixed with the following patch to x11term.c, around
	line 1596.
	
		    case FocusOut:
	                /* start of change */
	                if (
	                    (event.type == FocusOut || event.type == FocusIn)
	                    && event.xfocus.mode != NotifyNormal
	                   ) break;
	                /* end of change */

You are exactly right.  Focus worked as expected until I iconified an epoch
screen with my window manager.  Then it started to behave like
"click-to-type".  Your change corrected the behavior.

Thanks!
