switch-active-group doesn't behave as expected with multiple monitors

[klhrt]

switch-active-group, and by extension i3-switch-active-workspace-group, change the focused and active workspace of only the current monitor while only changing the active workspace of other monitors. The group is switched properly but the other windows aren't re-focused. This is of course a non-issue on a single monitor, but with multiple monitors the behavior is very strange and unintuitive. The current workspace switches, but the others stay focused on their old group/workspace which seems like it almost defeats the entire purpose of using the groups system. I feel a much better default behavior would be for all monitors to automatically focus on their new active group and have an optional flag to enable the current behavior.

What do you mean by that? there is no such command, only switch-active-group.

I agree it can make sense to re-focus on a window in the group you switch to on the other monitors, though I don't think it should be the default.
I can add a parameter that will control this.
