I suspect that this is a windows issue rather than anything specific to
Tk/Tcl in R.  Under windows NT, and presumably win 2000, you can download a
utility from microsoft called TweakUI which allows you to change the
behaviour of windows.  If you choose to have the focus following the mouse,
and no raising of windows with the focus, you should get the behaviour you
want.
