My misunderstanding, sorry.

But if the issue is documentation, why not show a proposed patch?

​I did with this suggested addition to select-window's doc string:

"Although this selects the window's frame, it does not alter the

frame's position in the window stack (see `raise-frame') nor does

it direct input focus to that frame.  To do both of those at once,

see `select-frame-set-input-focus'.

​I still think this is a clear and modest proposal.  select-window already

mentions frames so I don't see an issue with cross-referencing more frame-related

behavior to make the needs clear with one additional sentence.  Are you guys

still against this given the further explanations?
