[BUG]: Cursor position retained from previous workspace instead of restoring focus

Summary

Workspace 1 has one window (Win A), Workspace 2 has two windows side by side (Win B 60% | Win C 40%),

Issue: When focused on Win C on workspace 2, switching to workspace 1 and then back to workspace 2 does not restore focus to Win C. Instead, the cursor position from workspace 1 is retained, causing focus to land on whichever window is under that cursor position. This behavior is also inconsistent, as it sometimes restores correctly.

Expected behaviour: When returning to workspace 2, focus should be restored to Win C, the last focused window on that workspace.

Looking for configuration files in C:\Users\Adam\.config\komorebi

Found komorebi.json; this file can be passed to the start command with the --config flag

Found C:\Users\Adam\.config\whkdrc; key bindings will be loaded from here when whkd is started, and you can start it automatically using the --whkd flag
