Nope, that didn't work. But I can't believe the solution didn't reach out of
the monitor and slap me in the face! All I did was test for any mouse event
except MouseMove and call setFocus() for the right window. I'm sure I could
test for some type of keyboard input, too.

procedure SetFocusHandler( integer pSelf, integer pEvent, sequence pParams )

    if pParams[1] != MouseMove then
        setFocus( pSelf )
    end if

end procedure
setHandler( MyWin, w32HMouse, routine_id("SetFocusHandler") )
