I second this. The ability to select a window and position the cursor, 
all in one click, is something which I think was introduced with OS X. 
It was very convenient. With 10.3 the default behaviour is back to the 
OS 9 behaviour: two clicks required. It's unfortunate. I had got used 
to the new behaviour, and now several times every day I find myself 
selecting a window, typing in some text, only to realize a few seconds 
later that the text is being entered at a different place in the 
document.

Rich Koch said this is not a change he did on purpose in TeXShop, it's 
all due to the OS.

You must have used Textures in the past!

According to TeXShop's help (-> How do I configure TeXShop? -> 
Redefining Keyboard Menu Shortcuts), you can achieve this by editing 
~/Library/TeXShop/Menus/KeyEquivalents.plist
