Reviewers: jgw, Description: The SuggestBox loses focus when the mouse hovers over the list of suggestions because MenuBar steals keyboard focus on hover. This is particularly annoying if a user leaves the cursor just beneath the text box. As soon as the suggestions are shown, the text box loses focus.
In fact, there are other cases where this can be annoying, such as just having a MenuBar and TextBox in the same app: http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/issues/detail?id=3884 Fix: ==== This patch adds an option to MenuBar to disable focus on hover, which fixes the problem at the expense of losing keyboard focus. SuggestBox now uses the new option. Testing: ======= Manually verified that this works for MenuBar and SuggestBox.
