Typically, only "compound" components (e.g., panels with UI
elements nested in them) manage focus.  JTextField is not 
such a beast, so it's a bit unusual to have it manage its
own focus -- there are no focusable elements nested in it,
thus there's nothing to manage.  

What problem are you attempting to solve?
