Oh, that is surprising... Ok, let it be so then.

This works for handleWindowFocusEvent(boolean parentWindowActive), but what about switching focus 
somewhere inside the browser but outside the plugin?

  100     public void handleFocusEvent(boolean focused) {
  101         this.focused = focused;
  102         updateOverlayWindowActiveState();
  103     }



This will call updateOverlayWindowActiveState() where focused==false and so the EmbeddedFrame won't 
be notified about deactivation.

Also, is it possible to have handleFocusEvent(true) called when the browser is inactive? If so, the 
EmbeddedFrame will receive unrelated notification.

Did I get it right?

Thanks,
Anton.
