I tried setting a breakpoint in 
org.eclipse.ui.internal.WorkbenchPage.activatePart(), in the inner class, to 
hook into part activation (e.g. clicking between views and editors).
It had no effect.
Setting it on the first statement worked fine.
This code is definitely getting run.
Here is the code:

static private void activatePart(final IWorkbenchPart part, final boolean 
switchActions, final boolean switchActionsForced) {
	Platform.run(new SafeRunnableAdapter(WorkbenchMessages.getString
("WorkbenchPage.ErrorActivatingView")) { //$NON-NLS-1$
		public void run() {
			if (part != null) {
				part.setFocus();
				PartSite site = (PartSite)part.getSite();
				PartPane pane = site.getPane();
				pane.showFocus(true);
				SubActionBars bars = (SubActionBars)
site.getActionBars();
				bars.partChanged(part);
				if (switchActions)
					bars.activate(switchActionsForced);
				WorkbenchPage page = (WorkbenchPage) 
site.getPage();
				page.getClientComposite().setTabList(new Control
[] { pane.getControl() });
			}
		}
	});
}
