[xmonad] Unreliable focus actions in Floating layout

Hi,

another PITA of floating windows handling in Xmonad:

1) set floating layout on an empty workspace (SimplestFloat or SimpleFloat)
2) launch two X window applications consecutively, like xterm and then gVim
3) try to change focus with a keyboard  -  Prev/Next  (Mod-j or Mod-k by
default) - FOCUSED WINDOWS ALWAYS POPS UP
4) now try to move a bit the top window with a mouse (Mod-MouseButton1 by
default)
5) try to change focus again like in point 3) -> FOCUSED WINDOW DOES NOT
POP UP AND STAYS BELLOW

Is ths a bug, a feature or am I missing something here ?
