I may contact SDL on this. I may also document my problem for
Hatari with a patch.
On one of my computers I cannot toggle (F11) between full-screen
and windowed with 'Keep desktop resolution in fullscreen' selected
without loss of focus when SDL_VIDEO_MINIMIZE_ON_FOCUS_LOSS=1
SDL_VIDEO_MINIMIZE_ON_FOCUS_LOSS causes other problems
on other systems with other programs (see internet), and should be
mentioned whenever there is indescribable odd behavior.
