The most elegant way I have found (using your definition of elegant) was 
to write a utility method that traverses the component hierarchy and 
registers a key binding on all JTextFields that it finds.  This is still 
not ideal, especially when you have some complex dialogs that dynamically 
add new panels containing JTextFields.  But it is the best solution that 
I could find.

Did you see my reply to your previous post?  It contains some more 
detailed information on this problem.  The title was "Re: how to control 
focus ?".
