Images opened in an unfocussed Tmux window (via script) are overlaid on top of the active window

Thanks again for all the good work, and for quickly merging my previous patch.

I found that images opened in an unfocussed Tmux window (via script) are overlaid on top of the active/focussed window, instead of remaining hidden. Not only that, but they are overlaid at a strange position in the active window, that has no relation to the position they would normally have in their own window,pane and session.

The problem case is: I have Tmux session with a window for a music player (ncmpcpp) and a pane with ueberzugpp to display cover art. When the window is focussed, if the song changes, the cover changes in the correct pane and position, as expected. However, if I have another window focussed (in the same session or in another session), when the song changes, the cover is displayed overlaid on top of the active/focussed window at a strange position, instead of remaining tied to the pane, window, session and position with which it was generated. Note: In this example, every time a new cover image is displayed, a new ueberzugpp layer and socket are created.

I checked that this was not the case with the original ueberzug, since with it, if an image is generated in an unfocussed window/session/pane it will remain hidden, and it will be shown back in the correct position if the window is focussed again.

Cheers!

I also checked that this is not a consequence of PR 212, since the issue already existed before it was merged.

I'm working on a patch for this. Will make PR soon.
