New windows from bookmarks opens behind current window, when using javascript

(Whiteboard: [2012 Fall Equinox])
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows 98; Win 9x 4.90)
Build Identifier:
javascript:void(bookwin=window.open('http://mozilla.org',
'shorl','width=580,height=300,scrollbars=yes,toolbar=no,location=no'));
When I bookmark this and click on the bookmark the window opens but no focused,
this is not the way it should be.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. create bookmark with javascript open window code in it
2. click bookmark
Actual Results:
3. see it open unfocused
Expected Results:
Open it infront
This is not the case on IE6/5/5.5
I also think that these windows should be focused when they already exist. e.g.
if I use this bookmark and then let the it be in the background it should
refocus on the top instead of loading the page in the background. This is not
the case in IE.
I think this can be worked around with javascript.
This is a sane default setting

I'm seeing this on MacOS with 1.4.1, 1.5 and 1.6b.
Is there a reason for this behavior? Anyone know a javascript workaround?

adding bookwin.focus() didn't work, too.
workaround may be:
javascript:url='http://mozilla.org';void(bookwin=window.open('','shorl','width=580,height=300,scrollbars=yes,toolbar=no,location=no'));bookwin.document.write('<head><meta
http-equiv="Refresh" content="1; url=\''+url+'\'" /></head><body
onLoad="window.focus()"><a
href="'+url+'">klick</a></body>');bookwin.document.close();

No; that doesn't work either. I remember at least one other bug on this topic;
I don't know why it hasn't been fixed yet. Of course, I don't know how to fix
it(yet).
