Prevent Skype from moving cursor on receiving file transfer

In Skype for Linux, whenever someone sends you a file, the file transfer window opens if not already, becomes the active window, and moves the cursor to the window.  This's extremely annoying, especially when I'm busy with something and someone starts spamming you with file transfers.  Is there any way to prevent this?  Either on a Skype level or a global level?  I can't find anything pertaining to it in the Skype settings.  My window manager is i3.  Thank you!

Presumably you'd need to hook into XWarpPointer in libX11.
