** Description changed:

  [ Impact ]
  
  Poor user experience due to the app window not being focused as
  expected.
  
  [ Test Case ]
  
  0. Have at least one application window open
  1. Enter launcher keynav mode with Alt+F1
  2. Select a launcher icon with the Up or Down keys.
  3. Show the quicklist by pressing Right.
  4. Collapse the quicklist by pressing Left.
- 5. Observe that the app window has focus.
+ 5. Observe that the app window never has focus during the above steps.
  
  [ Regression Potential ]
  
  None observed.
  
  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  
  Original Description:
  
  To reproduce:
  
  0) Have at least one application window open
  1) Enter launcher keynav mode with Alt+F1
  
   * Note that when entering keynav mode, the application loses focus. THe
  triangle to the right of it's launcher icon is no longer drawn, and the
  window title is not displayed in the panel.
  
  2) Select a launcher icon with the Up or Down keys.
  3) Show the quicklist by pressing Right.
  
   * Note that the application becomes active again - it's window title is
  drawn to the panel, and the triangle to the right of the launcher icon
  is drawn again.
  
  4) Collapse the quicklist by pressing Left.
  
   * The app loses focus again.
  
  This seems like inconsistent behavior to me... either the app should
  never lose focus when we enter keynav mode, or should not be activated
  when we show a quicklist.
