      In JDK 1.1.4G -
      For some reason, Component.dispatchEventImpl now contains the
      following lines of code:
      case MouseEvent.MOUSE_PRESSED:
        requestFocus();
        break;
      Before, this code was commented out (and the commented-out code
      first checked isFocusNavigable())
      I've got no idea why anyone would add this code, and I wish
      they hadn't - it causes massive problems with many of our
      lightweight components. Even components that never want to
      take focus are now taking the focus when clicked on.
      This is a massive 100% showstopper.
