I'm given to understand that some pretty smart people have looked at
this problem and concluded that, as a result of design decisions Apple
made in their UI layer, the focus problems in X on OSX *cannot* be fixed
without re-implementing the whole Apple UI layer.  (Darwin?  Carbon?  I
lose track of these completely orthogonal-to-relevant codenames.)
