 Sorry, lost focus completely, so to speak. Hardware failure.
 Hopefully back next week.

 Before breakdown I tried IceWM and got same result for my and your 
 program.
 I'm on debian wheezy, ctwm, self compiled python 3.1.1 (tcl/tk 8.4 not 
 sure)
 I am not getting any 'focus out' messages from your program. No idea 
 why.
 I'll try to post a minimal example some time next week.

 Regards,
 Matthias.
