Try NoTitleFocus.

I experienced something that sounds similar in the sense that the widget
wouldn't accept key input, but the circumstances may be different. In my
case, I would pop up a shell and then pop it back down by pushing a
button in a child of the popup shell, but then the main widget wouldn't
accept key input any more. I noticed the following sequence:

    move into main      insert main

    map popup           remove main
                        insert main
                        remove main
                        insert main

    move into popup     remove main
                        insert popup

    unmap popup         remove popup
                        insert popup !
                        remove main  !
                        insert main

where insert is InsertFocusEntry(), remove is RemoveGrab(), both in
Xt/Event.c. The lines marked with ! are suspect.

Does anyone know where the bug is?
