The problem appeared several years ago, and I think it's mozilla
"forgetting" which window has focus. It often appears when using
tabs, and sometimes closing the offending tab (whichever this may
be) "fixes" the problem. I spent lots of time debugging this
problem, but never could find anything that fvwm does wrong.
After all, the problem even appears if you leave the focus on the
mozilla window and just switch between tabs. Fvwm does absolutely
nothing with the focus in this case.
