since the window system doesn't do it for us like other platforms.
This prevents sticky keys and missed keys when going in and out
of focus, for example Alt would appear to stick if switching away
from an SDL app with Alt-Tab and had to be pressed again.

It seems like a net improvement in all the scenarios Sam and I could
think of, and looking at hg history it was added for fullscreen
window management specifically. Much of that code has changed since
then, but maybe it needs to stay there for that and simply be moved
to a fullscreen condition check.
It would solve this issue:

As well as cases where on SteamOS, we hide/show specific Steam
overlay windows while expecting them to stay in the background, since
changing the window stacking order really angers the NVIDIA driver.
CR: Sam.
