Brian Leathem commented on RF-11381:
------------------------------------

Here's a summary of the problem I'm having resolving this issue.

Native focus/blur events fire when a specific dom element gains/loses focus - it does not bubble up, nor does it apply to it's children.  My initial approach was to programatically track what has focus, and manually fire focus/blur events.  This worked in simple cases, but resulted in the timing problem reported with this issue.

jQuery has the focusIn/focusOut events that do bubble up, but are fired even when focus jumps between different children of an element.  Thus, using these events to for the picklist, we would have events firing as we move between the source and target lists, and would have to again disambiguate these events programtically.

There is however a jQuery plugin that achieves exactly what we want:

This file adds the focusin and focusout events. These events are fired when focus goes into/out of an element or any of its children. It does not fire when focus jumps between different children of an element.
