I would approach this via one of the two alternatives:

* Your window manager might allow you to configure whether the click
  event that gives focus will also be reported to the applications
  (IIRC, kwin has a setting for this).
* I always use Super+Click (often also ALT works) to give focus to
  programs without forwarding the event to the program itself.  Super
  being the key that I use for many window operations with the mouse
  (move, resize etc.).

HTH,
Martin
