                    this solves the mysterious click-and-drag-doesnt-work
                    problem. it was because the window gets focused and stuff

+                   however this very bogus ! !
+                   we want to send the button press to the window BEFORE
+                   we do the action because the action might move the windows
+                   (eg change desktops) and then the button press ends up on
+                   the completely wrong window !
+                   so, this is just for that bug, and it will only NOT queue it
+                   if it is a focusing action that can be used with the mouse
+                   pointer. ugh.
