This should be an easy one for all ya Intuition hackers out there...

How can an application determine which window was active before it
was called/activated?

Or more precisely, window A is active, user selects window B (running
appliction B), B does its thing and since its a very friendly beast
would like to return control to A. Is there an EASY way to do it?

If not, consider this a proposal for 1.4 and beyond...
