Hiding/dismissing Guake focusses Desktop

Lately a new bug in Guake surfaced, which didn't happen several weeks ago or so:
When I pull down Guake and then close it again (by tapping the same hotkey again), it will actually focus my Desktop, even though I had lots of windows open all over the screen, of which one had focus at the time I pulled down Guake.
I'm often in the process of entering something, then bringing up Guake and dismissing it, and finish what I was doing. Thanks to this focus bug I thereby accidentally perform random actions on my Desktop icons, such as deleting (if I press DEL key because I was actually editing some text) or launching an application (if I press ENTER key while "editing" something) and so on.
Does anyknow know how to revert this extremely annoying Guake behaviour of focus-stealing, please?

This is especially annoying because the desktop isn't even visible but covered with other applications, so it's hard to notice, and the only workaround I know right now is to press ALT+TAB followed by ALT+SHIFT+TAB each time after dismissing Guake.
