This is said to be the new officially-correct behavior. The user must always
have visual confirmation that switching to an application worked.
I don't like it, either. I often switch back to an application just to set
its preferences or examine its menus. I know to look at the application name
in the application menu to confirm that I got where I wanted to be. I don't
like having to dismiss a window I didn't ask for. I think the HI people are
wrong on this one.
