No, select-frame (in my opinion) should be more analogous to
set-buffer than to select-window; valid only until the window
system is given a chance to assert it's will.  It should not
override window system preferences like "focus follows mouse".
But opinions differ on this, whihc I guess is the reason we have
a focus-follow-mouse variable.
