Want keystrokes to go to the native OS window that has focus
------------------------------------------------------------
Key: PIVOT-720
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-720
Project: Pivot
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: wtk
Affects Versions: 2.0
Reporter: Bill van Melle
If you use DesktopApplicationContext.createDisplay to create a new OS window,
and you want to handle keystrokes sent to that window, the only way your key
listener will get called is if there is a focused Pivot component in that
window. But not all interesting windows contain a focusable component, and
even when they do, there are often good reasons not to focus a particular
component by default. Meanwhile, if Pivot's notion of the currently focused
component is in a different OS window, keystrokes will go there, even though
it's not the window that appears to the user to have focus (as judged by the
native window system focus decoration), which is counterintuitive.
