  I hope X11 can do better.

This isn't true.  In X10, you get a FocusChange event with detail = EnterWindow
when the window gets the focus, and another FocusChange event with
detail = LeaveWindow when the window loses the focus.  At least that's what
the X10 protocol spec says.  If your server doesn't do this, it's a buggy
server (which isn't unthinkable).

In X11, there are separate events called FocusIn and FocusOut, which have
the same effect.
