Sorry if this has been reported (or is it regarded as a "feature").

Povwin seems to become the active application window a little too eagerly
when the mouse passes over it carrying a file or shortcut even when the file
is not dropped. This only seems to happen if the mouse passes over the edit
area (including the scroll bars).

Well I'll be a POV-Ray primitive, so right Tom. Guess I haven't
drag'n'dropped with POV running before. Tried this over Notepad to see
the difference. And there is a difference.

I would be curious to know if this varies with the render priority
setting. I can't test it right now or I would report the results
of that curiosity.

nah, doesn't seem affected by either render or gui priority.
