As a simple solution, why not just modify the form tag template and if the
focusElement parameter is set, include a simple javascript block at the
close of the form to set the focus. Just keep in mind that if there are two
forms on a page and both have the focusElement parameter set only the last
will be relevant.

The advantage being you can use javascript code to match your environment ­
jQuery, Dojo, pure javascript, etc.
