I guess focus means highlighting the object somehow (e.g. drawing  
transparent rectangle over it or hollow rectangle box around it).

Yes, it's very easy. At least imo :-)

If you look into this, be sure to checkout the demo. It should answer most  
of your questions.

I keep losing track of the linux/mac problems. IIRC it was fixed. I've  
made an svn checkin a week or two ago which might break things again  
(although I really don't think so, but you never know. This stuff is very  
brittle cross-platform).

As Chris said, if you checkout the demo you'll see whether it will work.
