Bug ID: 58093
           Summary: UseTakeFocus=N&Two or more Window: Window flashes
                    violently & KDE freezes
           Product: Wine
           Version: 10.5
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown

Test(exe+src)

When “UseTakeFocus=N”, there is a problem when launching an application with
more than one window. The windows blink violently and change focus violently.
KDE becomes completely inoperable.
Please use Ctrl+Alt+F2 to switch to the console and pkill.

Attached test case(FlickWndDlgVer1/Release/FlickWndDlgVer1.exe): low
reproducibility, about 50%. If it does not reproduce, exit and try again. In
most cases, this exe becomes operational in about 5 seconds.
AzPainter2(https://forest.watch.impress.co.jp/library/software/azpainter/):
reproduces almost 99%. KDE becomes inoperable. It remains inoperable for more
than 1 minute.

Setting “UseTakeFocus=Y” solves this problem.

Is there any reason to use UseTakeFocus=N anymore? I think UseTakeFocus=Y
should work well now. I am tempted to get rid of the option entirely.

A couple of months ago I had some games (probably Unity) that would freeze when
the window was inactive. I avoided the freezes by using "UseTakeFocus=N".

I compiled wine from the latest git and tried it. All games that did not work
before worked fine. Your recent patch
(b568eaac4aeb307d289ae6992457411adce6068e) fixed it completely. I will now use
wine with "UseTakeFocus=Y". So please close this bug with WONTFIX or something.
Finally, thanks for your patch!
