Java 8

Looks to be some API changes even from later 7 builds, I guess I've been
lucky that things work as well as they do.  I've hacked together a patch
with a test that triggers my issue (with a JIDE popup component).  The JIDE
popup creates a new JWindow that probably is stealing the focus, so this
might be similar to the focus issue I was having a couple of years ago.

I've also modified the code so things will compile under JDK 8, I'm sure
what I did probably isn't correct though as I've only created empty methods
to satisfy the new interface methods.

I'll continue to poke around to see if I can track it down.

Thanks,
Glen
