cmanske for review -- Charley please reassign to teh appropriate person if this 
is not your area.

This seems to be true for any use of "Advanced Edit" dialog, such as from
the link, image, and table properties dialogs. Whenever "Advanced Edit" is 
used, closing the parent dialog returns to the wrong window.
Spell checking also has layered dialogs: Bring up spell checker, then use the 
"Edit..." button for the dictionary dialog, then close both. You will see the
focus shift to the browser window briefly, but then pull back to Composer!
The reason is that we explicitly call "window._content.focus();" after 
spelling. I could add that for all calls to our dialogs, but that seems
pretty lame. The shifting window focus is ugly anyway.
This is a general window focusing issue, not an editor bug. We should be able
to maintain parent window relationships for multiple levels of dialogs.
Removing [p:4], as we can't be sure of that yet!
