This does not work with wine 1.5 and goes as long back as wine 1.0.1 so I guess
this is incompatibility with something else.

There were some input changes in Xorg so maybe that's the issue.

X.Org X Server 1.12.0.902 (1.12.1 RC 2)

I tried running the X server without a WM and then I can type text in notepad
after moving focus away from it and back.

I also downgraded my WM to a very old version (from Debian stable) but this
does not fix the issue.

Since I was able to experience Bug 27232 earlier there must be a configuration
in which this worked but I cannot tell what it was.

Any insight in debugging this issue would be welcome.

I have only found one way to resolve this so far.  In winecfg under the
Graphics tab, set "Allow the window manager to control the windows." to
disabled.  By doing this it allows you to change focus and retain keyboard
input in the wine window.

The one problem with it being set this way is that now when you minimize the
wine window it puts an icon on the screen that is on top of any other normal wm
window.

I am using wine-1.5.19 and e16 for wm.  I have confirmed that this problem is
not restricted to e16 nor does it care if compositing is enabled.  This problem
has persisted since (at least from my confirmation) wine v1.3.

I forgot to add in that it does not seem to be program specific either.  This
problem has happened no matter what I load in wine.  Also, with the windows not
being controlled by the wm, the wine windows act as if they were "sticky".

Michal, have you noticed that this only happens when you use sloppy-focus?  It
happens to me no matter what focus type my wm is using.

I no longer experience this in wine 1.4.1, 1.5.17 and 1.5.19.

X server 1.12.4.

Note however that due to bug in XInput all the XInput libraries have been
upgraded on Debian/Ubuntu also.

This is because I am using virtual desktop.

Without one the keyboard input is still lost after wine gets focus back.

When I use a Virtual Desktop I still get the problem even if wm control id
disabled.  The only way programs work for me is to enable "allow wm to decorate
windows", disable "allow wm to control windows" and disable "virtual desktop". 
The "mouse grab" option seems to have no effect either way, other than being
annoying.

Also, my distro is SMP Debian 3.2.35-2 x86_64 GNU/Linux.

I have "allow wm to decorate windows" and "allow wm to control windows"
enabled.

With "virtual desktop" enabled notepad works as expected. Without keyboard
input is lost after focus-in and focus-out. I am running Debian wheezy.
