I think the way Swing handles focus is that it tries to navigate left to
right and top to bottom through components.

If you want to override default Swing focus management ( and I reckon
everyone with any more than a few components on a window will need to ) you
have a couple of options.

1. disable swing focus management and manually call
setNextFocusableComponent() for each component. This works fine for simple
windows with only a few components but will very soon get VERY tedious

2. Create you own implementation of FocusManager. This is what I think I'll
do when Swing focus management finally drives me up the wall. I've had a
look at the code and it doesn't exactly look like a simple thing to do.

Has anyone solved the focus management problem out there?
