Comment (by hajma):
On pidgin startup, when typing password for an XMPP account, when I'm
halfway through a new pidgin window is opened and gets focus. The new
window is for my IRC account, the window name is 'Cannot join channel' and
content is "Cannot join #channelname: Registration is required.
Cannot join channel (+r) - you need to be identified with services - see
https://freenode.net/kb/answer/registration'"
This is with pidgin 2.13 in KDE 5 with 'Focus stealing prevention' set to
Medium.
100% reproducible.
I also observed this on Debian 9 with MATE, but don't have that system at
the moment.
