Synopsis RFE: add previousFocus() method to Component
Category java:classes_awt
Reported Against 1.0.2

Description
	Java Bugs in Windows 95:
	
	* The handleEvent() doesn't bring the GOT_FOCUS and LOST_FOCUS events.
	  This is true from both subclass of the Frame
	  and subclass of the TextField.
	  How to do data validation without LOST_FOCUS ?
	
	* The TAB and Shift-TAB don't move between the controls.
	  Bad luck that there is nextFocus() but not previousFocus().
	
	* Cannot have a MODAL Dialog.
	  I want to show a Visual Basic like Message Box with OK/Cancel
	  but it didn't work with Java.
Work Around
N/A
Evaluation

Currently planning to implement this functionality, or equivalent
functionality, in the merlin focus enhancements.
