I'm not sure if what Shaun is reporting is the bug everyone else is
complaining about.
Andreas nailed the steps for the XCode bug this thread originated as:
1. Open two editor windows.
2. Now place the cursor at a specific position in window one.
3. Click in window two. (Window two comes to the top.)
4. Click in window one. (Window one comes to the top, the cursor
blinks where you put it in step 2.)
5. Click somewhere else inside window one to place the cursor at an
other position.
The Click does nothing. At least nothing visible. You need to click
once more to place the cursor.
Step 4 brings the window forward and the selection/insertion point does
not change. This is as expected.
Step 5 is the next click inside the window that just came forward. This
click should move the insertion point. It does not. Nothing happens. I
can reproduce this at will.
I have logged this as bug 3502112 (including the steps Andreas
published).

Editor windows don't support click-through (this is a general Mac OS X
thing, not just Xcode). In general, any time a mouse click could result
in a "destructive" action, then click-through should not be allowed.
For the editor, consider the case where you have a selection and the
window is not active. Simply clicking on the window should only bring
it to the front (the selection should not be destroyed).

I don't seem to see this. It would be good to file a bug with very
specific instructions on how to reproduce this at

That'll be easy: 1. Click; 2. Type. 3. Try to find where the text
was
inserted. I"ll file the bug report.
We'll need more specific information. I tested this way:
- open Xcode
- create project (Cocoa)
- open main.m
- click at a line
- type
No problems, text inserted exactly at the point where I clicked.
Now switch to another app, then try to change the insert point with
the first click of your mouse in an Xcode editor window, which will
bring Xcode back to the front. Yes, the I-beam insert cursor is
placed at the mouseDown location, but the text system does not accept
this new location, and any subsequent keystrokes will be inserted at
the previous location of the insert cursor before the window resigned
main/key. This happens with a fresh erase-install of Panther/Xcode,
and has existed since the WWDC seed, as well as the other bugs Bill
reported.
