opt('focus_policy', 'exclusive', choices=('exclusive', 'on-demand'), long_text='''
How to manage window focus. A value of :code:`exclusive` means prevent other windows from getting focus.
However, whether this works is entirely dependent on the compositor/desktop environment.
It does not have any effect on macOS and KDE, for example. Note that on sway using :code:`on-demand` means
the compositor will not focus the window when it appears until you click on it, which is why the default is set
to :code:`exclusive`.
