tests.simple.MainFrame - cannot input text inside Java input field

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. On Windows, build latest JCEF revision 104
2. Run tests.simple.MainFrame
3. Click inside Java address field. Type characters.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The characters don't go to the Java input field. Instead they go to the CEF 
browser.

Please provide any additional information below.

tests.detailed.MainFrame works because of the following code in 
ControlPanel.java

    address_field_.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() {
      @Override
      public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent arg0) {
        KeyboardFocusManager.getCurrentKeyboardFocusManager()
            .clearGlobalFocusOwner();
        address_field_.requestFocus();
      }
    });

So does it mean that we must override every mouseClicked callback of every 
input widget? I don't remember that being necessary in previous version of JCEF 
r99 for example.

> JCEF r99 for example.
I meant r92. I don't know exactly when tests.simple.MainFrame stopped working.

Note this was working in JCEF revision 99. This was broken in revision 100, 
when issue 104 was added.

What is your opinion? Should apps embedding the Cef browser ensure every Java 
input widget mouseClicked callback be overriden as above? We're including 3rd 
party components so that's not really going to be an option in our case...

Focus/keyboard issues are always very delicate, will try to come up with 
suggestions...

For now in our app I'll use JCEF revision 104 minus the changes from revision 
100. This avoids the z-ordering pb (issue 120) and keyboard input (this issue).

This issue is a duplicate of issue 42. The attached patch is currently in 
review.

... and a partial duplicate of issue 96

Thanks for the pointers and that patch in issue 42. Getting focus right between 
AWT and CEF is tricky.

Marking this issue as a duplicate of issue #42 since it appears to be fixed 
with the change from that issue.
