Description Dimitar Toshev 2009-04-10 18:09:50 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Unspecified Linux

Please make the kickoff menu automatically gain focus when shown.

I've configured kwin's behaviour on left-clicking inside an unfocused window to "Activate and Raise" and not "Activate, Raise & Pass click", therefore currently I have to click twice inside the kickoff menu to launch an application - once to give it focus and once to launch the application.

It would be really nice if the kickoff Application Launcher menu behaved like a regular menu - open on mouse down event, gain focus automatically and launch program on mouse up event.
