  • Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

not so much a problem as a minor annoyance. i love the "mouse follows focus" setting when i'm just using hotkeys to jump between windows and such, but occasionally i'll be using my mouse for something and decide to just click on a stacked item to bring it into focus, and since i have "mouse follows focus" my mouse immediately jumps to the center of that window.

  • Describe the solution you'd like

since i'm already actively using my mouse to select/focus the window, i feel like it would be nice to have some sort of override so that if a stack item is clicked with the mouse, the mouse doesn't move when the window is brought into focus. similar to the way using a mouse to click on and focus a window in a tiled layout doesn't also move the mouse after focusing the new window.

  • Describe alternatives you've considered

i can't think of any alternatives off the top of my head.

  • Additional context

like i mentioned above, it's not a major hurdle to usage or anything like that, just something i've been running into over the last day or two of using the app. otherwise, i love the heck out of this project, so thanks for making it!

I believe this is fixed on master and is due to be released with v0.1.25; you can either compile this from source with cargo directly or grab the GitHub Actions prebuilt artifacts to try it out before the final release.
