+   * Occasionally compton does not seem able to get a FocusIn event from a
+   * window just mapped. I suspect it's a timing issue again when the
+   * XSelectInput() is called too late. If this is the case, I could think
+   * of two fixes: To monitor the focus events from the root window, and
+   * to determine if the current window is focused in map_win(). Looks
+   * like the XFocusChangeEvent sent to the root window contains no
+   * information about where the WM frame of the focused window is, and 
+   * XGetInputFocus() often returns an application window instead of the
+   * WM frame, which compton keeps track of, in either way I believe we
+   * have to travel through the ancestors of the focused window it
+   * returns. The latter choice looks cheaper, so I'm doing it here.
+   * But still, this could anyway be costly.
+   *
+   * An alternative route might be relying on _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW.
+   * Unfortunately as it's set by WM I'm not completely sure if it's
+   * reliable and will be updated on the very moment a window is mapped.
