Off the top of my head, that seems tricky to do in the context of Mac OS
X unless you also want (or are willing to tolerate) activating windows
on mouseover. It's trivial for a single app to do it among its own
windows (and Terminal.app offers an undo***ented pref to do so) but an
after-market system-wide patch would be tough, IMO.
