textbox.select() brings the window that contains the textbox to the front. Hyatt fixed a similar problem for textbox.focus() in bug 41813, so I'm giving this bug to him. This bug is visible at aj.com: loading aj.com in one window while another window is focused causes the aj.com window to jump in front.
--> bryner. Just mimic what I did in the Focus method.

r=dbaron if you move the declaration of |focusController| to the line before where you use it.
I find it disconcerting that this fix requires adding code rather than removing it. Shouldn't the C++ code have specifically ask for the window to gain focus for the window to gain focus?
May God have mercy on us all. The 212 bug spam-o-rama is Now!
