I have following line

exec _i3-stop-application-on-unfocus.py "Pale moon" palemoon

works good. But sometimes it sends SIGSTOP signal to the processes, that have i3status in their name too.
So the system turns completely unusable out. This happens ~1-2 times/day. After changing to a terminal console and sending SIGCONT signals to the stopped processes, all works fine.

So. I think to find how to trigger the bug:

  1. run the browser
  2. run the script
  3. run floating terminal window
  4. focu on this floating terminal window
  5. make it fullscreen with a shortcut
  6. see that i3status was SIGSTOPped
