raise window on-click

[Gregory Gulik]

I'm so glad other people agree.  I was just about to file a bug report. 
  I started upgrading all of my RH9 PCs to Fedora but that one "feature" 
has kept me from getting past the first two.  I find it moderately 
annoying, my wife (who uses NT/XP most of the time) finds it virtually 
unuseable.

It really MUST be an option.
