This didn't used to be possible in MacOS X. When I switched from Windows, it was such a lovely surprise I considered it one of the best reasons to make the change.
That didn't last. Maybe five years ago, something changed and MacOS allowed programs to hijack focus. I was so disappointed.
Apple seems to be (very slowly) getting back to fundamentals. I wish reverting this change was part of that program.
