Re: [dwm] text focus issues in java text fields

Note, I will investigate into the Java compliance issue again in
January. I hope that we will get some usable workaround for the
broken XToolkit, that we can get rid of the MToolkit. My
favorized solution might be a JDK-fix. I once already was about
starting to hack XWM.java of the XToolkit, but got interrupted
for some reason.

Anselm
