Typing off the cuff, I'd think you'd want two things:
1. Change the mod-j/k bindings to (windows W.focusDown >> someExpression)
where someExpression involves some import from XMC.Warp
2. Create a LayoutModifier that intercepts all mouse motion events
(not just enter/exit) to change focus.
I could be totally wrong. It's late.
