I think we need to distinguish the WM-level notion of focus from an
"Emacs-internal" notion of focus.
>From that point of view, WM-focus and raising should be changed (from
ELisp) only in fairly rare circumstances.

Hmm... maybe in some cases, but probably not when Emacs doesn't have focus.

Indeed.

In theory we do separate them, with things like
select-frame-set-input-focus/x-focus-frame/raise-frame on one side and
select-frame/window on the other.
