I suggest you compile the X11 version of Lyx and run that under X11. Then you will get the desired behavior.
There is no "focus follows mouse" for non-X11 apps.

You can turn it on for Terminal, with
defaults write com.apple.Terminal AutoFocus -bool True
(I think). Then you get focus-follows-mouse between X11 apps and Terminal, or between Terminal windows. Focus-follows-mouse doesn't work for arbitrary Aqua apps because then there'd be no way to move the mouse to the menu bar without accidentally switching apps.



I don't follow you. So what if you switch apps, that's the idea of "focus follows mouse," right? I don't see that being a show-stopper for Aqua. I think Apple has just as usual decided we "don't need that feature." That's the downside of Apple. I'm experiencing lots of "Apple doesn't think I need that" with my new iPhone too. :-|
