Maybe I am coming at this from too simple a viewpoint, but the only way another window should get focus is if the user gives it focus.

That would make it simple. Apps that need your attention can do the taskbar blinking event and then if the user is not knee deep in something requiring focus, they can click on it or alt-tab to it.

For crikeys sake, why does the splash screen of some apps need to grab the focus? *paul glares at Photoshop and Fireworks in particular* that is just nuts. I left them to load in the background on purpose.

But I hear what you are saying. They have made it complicated, too clever for it's own good.
