It can be made to be non-interactive by running it in the background xwinfo |grep window id:' &, and following it by xdotool click 1... but that runs the risk of the foreground click executing before the xdotool grabs the mouse. I'd rathen not use a nominal `sleep n, so although this answer is on-track, I'll wait a wihile to see if something more inline turns up...
