How to keep an active window on top, and any eventual new window go behind active one?

44

Go to System Settings, and click through as follows:

System Settings
  \
  (section Workspace Appearance and Behavior)
   Window Behavior
     \
      (on left) Window Behavior (again)
        \
         (on top: Tab) Focus

Set "Focus Stealing Prevention Level" to "None".

For me this was set to "Low", and all new windows that already had started a window of the same type (e.g. Konsole, Firefox, gVim) would appear behind the active window. Setting to "None" resolved it.

This used to be working, for months even, but suddenly changed behavior a few days ago. I'm on a managed corporate Linux workstation, so this could have been a settings rollout by I.T., no idea. After changing that setting, new windows appear on top.
