Perhaps regressed with bug 337219?? Seems to be Windows and OS X only -- Linux correctly sends the focus event when an inactive window that has a previously-focused element becomes active again. This affects bug 413836 which has STR: 1) focus location bar 2) open new window 3) close window 4) focus returns to the original location bar expected: 5) focus event triggers (which reattaches the autocomplete controller) actual: 5) no focus event triggered The focus is actually still in the location bar, but no event was sent. Bug 413836 works around this issue by reattaching the controller when the user hits the keyboard.
Summary: No focus event focus returns to a window with focused element → No focus event when focus returns to a window with focused element
This might actually not be a bug after dumping a ton of messages and debug stuff.. focus might be correctly returned.. at least on os x.
Marking WFM for now.. seems like bug 337178 was the real regression for bug 413836.
