Hi!

I've set up my emacs to prepare the org-agenda whenever I start it up.

While emacs starts up, I'm doing other things and it's frequently annoying me that emacs brings itself to the foreground (with qtile, if that's relevant).

I've come up with the following minimal configuration that reproduces the issue for me (via emacs -Q -l ~/minimal-org.el):

,----[ minimal-org.el ]

(require 'package)

(add-to-list 'package-archives '("org" . "https://orgmode.org/elpa/") t)

(package-initialize)

(add-to-list 'load-path "~/lib/emacs/use-package/")

(require 'use-package)

(use-package org

:ensure org-plus-contrib)

(define-key global-map "\C-ca" 'org-agenda)

(custom-set-variables

'(org-agenda-files (quote ("~/Org/Collect.org" "~/Org/Common.org" "~/Org/Rechner.org" "~/Org/home/Familie.org" "~/Org/home/Haus.org" "~/Org/home/Gesundheit.org" "~/Org/home/Musik.org" "~/Org/home/Rechner.org" "~/Org/home/Sonstiges.org" "~/Org/home/Weiterentwicklung.org" "~/Org/work/Cert.org")))

'(org-agenda-include-diary t))

`----

When I comment out org-agenda-include-diary or set it to nil, the behaviour disappears.

When I comment out my extensive set of large org-mode files, the behaviour disappears as well, but maybe just because I'm not fast enough to switch away from emacs before it happens.

I'd like to be able to use org-agenda-include-diary but disable the behaviour that emacs raises itself.

Please CC me in replies, as I'm not subscribed to this list.

For completeness, I've been asked to file an issue against qtile, because they want to be able to prevent such behaviour from clients on the window manager side, and they're also dealing with focus problems recently. https://github.com/qtile/qtile/issues/1756

Best regards
