You would tab away from the cursor at your peril.  You could force it, by only cycling the windows under the cursor, but I think that would not feel natural.  I assume that that's why MS Windows shies away from focus-follows-cursor, though I recall that at least in the past (NT or Win2k?), there was a TweakUI setting where you could ask for it, though it did not always work smoothly (I don't remember the exact kinks, but I know I used it).", "timestamp": "1338779090"}]}
