The same happens with the control panel from CDPlayer.app.  You can bring it  
to the front by clicking it and manipulate all the buttons and sliders, but  
it doesn't become key until you click the title bar.  It's a nice feature for  
that type of app, but doesn't it dismiss some UI guideline somewhere?

As long as one being gets others to bow to him because he has the 
power to destroy them and all they have and all they love, then all
of us must be afraid together.
