+/**
+ * The focus manager deals with all focus related behaviour. Only one element
+ * in the entire application may have the focus at a time; this element
+ * receives any keyboard events. While there is only one application-wide
+ * focused element, each nsIDOMWindow maintains a reference to the element
+ * that would be focused if the window was active.
+ *
+ * If the window's reference is to a frame element (iframe, browser,
+ * editor), then the child window contains the element that is currently
+ * focused. If the window's reference is to a root element, then the root is
+ * focused. If a window's reference is null, then no element is focused, yet
+ * the window is still focused.
+ *
+ * The blur event is fired on an element when it loses the application focus.
+ * After this blur event, if the focus is moving away from a document, two
+ * additional blur events are fired on the old document and window containing
+ * the focus respectively.
+ *
+ * When a new document is focused, two focus events are fired on the new
+ * document and window respectively. Then the focus event is fired on an
+ * element when it gains the application focus.
+ *
+ * A special case is that the root element may be focused, yet does not
+ * receive the element focus and blur events. Instead a focus outline may be
+ * drawn around the document.
+ *
+ * Blur and focus events do not bubble as per the W3C DOM Events spec.
