This isn't a question about why apple doesn't accommodate the peculiar
desires of ex-unix nerds. The question is about why apple considers
focus-follows-mouse to be a peculiar thing for them to desire. It's a
pretty basic thing, which I'd expect to be at least an easily supported
option on all windowing systems within no more than a decade of the
time that it was first supported by any windowing system (and that was
a lot earlier than a decade ago).
