Hi, Dmitry.
Can you please provide some more details why this bug is reproducible 
only on mac and not on the other platforms(I meant the bug related to 
the popup menu not SHOULD_BECOME_KEY and SHOULD_BECOME_MAIN bits)

I have checked our current behavior on win/lin/mac in all cases the 
simple "Window" cannot get a focus, without any difference which parent 
is used(null/frame/window).

So for example if the window1 is owned by another window2, then both of 
them are "unfocusable", but after the current fix, both will be 
"focusable" if the window2 will be owned by the embedded frame.
