I run IDL from Terminal.app using Apple's X11. If I open a window with
WINDOW, the graphics window appears in the foreground, but keyboard
focus remains in the Terminal window.

If I do the same thing from an xterm window, keyboard focus switches to
the graphics window.

Maybe using Terminal instead of an xterm will do what you want?
Terminal windows work differently than xterm windows in other regards
(e.g., copying and pasting), so you may want to experiment.
