Mozilla does not appear to use XGetInputFocus except in one obscure
place having to do with popups.  So by your reasoning, mozilla should
not be able to behave differently with PointerRoot.

Mozilla implements a click-to-focus policy internally.  If you click on
the location bar and type into it, are your keypresses ignored?
