Synopsis: Please set focus to the widget that is the first in tab order when a window is shown
Description
Many GUI frameworks, on showing a window, automatically set focus to the first control in tab order. Vision2 does not. This steepens the learning curve for Vision2. It also increases the risk that a programmer will forget to set focus to any widget, resulting in a window that is unusable without the mouse.
