I don't think it is serious, since it is not normal in MS-Windows for
windows that are not topmost to have input focus, and the problem only
happens with some video drivers.  The cursor display code has changed
substantially in the trunk, partly because of the support for the
system-caret (for blind users), so it is difficult to track down which
change was necessary to prevent the cursor display problems.
