   We if it is within a web browser, then it is the configuration of the   
   website, not OS. Even so if I am using a terminal window or Libre Office   
   document with a web browser window open, a popup there never took my   
   focus from my active window. I use standard Ubuntu GNOME desktop and   
   even notifications never stole my focus. My only issue with Ubuntu is on   
   laptops that setting to disable touchpad while typing never seems to   
   work and an accidental touch does steal my focus! (I predate leaning   
   "keyboarding" in school)
