Hi,

I would like to modify the default window configuration for my GLMakie installation; in particular, I want the effect of running `GLMakie.set_window_config!(focus_on_show=true)` whenever I import GLMakie, without having to run this function each time. Is there a way to do this without directly modifying the `GLMakie. __init__ ()` function?

Thanks!
