<AWT Dev> [8] Review request for 6847588: AWT test fails

In (X)KFMPeer.java we know we always operate on Window instances. The 
setCurrentFocusedWindow(Window) method will never be called with any 
other components. Therefore, to avoid the overhead of taking multiple 
locks I suggest to use the AWTAccessor.getPeer directly in this case.

In other words, I support the current version of the fix.

Also, in all other cases and for the same reason I don't agree with the 
"making the life easier" proposed by you. Note that it's not just 17 
usages. We often call getPeer directly on component instances. Perhaps 
we should replace those with calls via the AWTAccessor instead. But 
that's something to be considered under a separate CR.
