I use XQuartz in full-screen mode (being an old Unix dog ;-). Every now

I have to do is to type Alt-Cmd-A, click in the window I was working in,
and I'm back. But it's annoying to have your train of thoughts
interrupted by your screen playing cheeky tricks at you. ;-)

Try disabling the screen saver, just for a test.  One thing I've noticed with recent Lion updates is that the screen saver will periodically start to activate and then shut back down again when I'm working full screen in Parallels, while I'm typing or etc.

I have also had Wyse PocketCloud do things like that if it loses and regains its connection to the mothership.
