In the same vein: Focus should be set *somewhere* when the window is
initially displayed. If focus has not been set explicitly, it
should be set to the first descendant which can do something with
focus. I fixed this manually for all the dialogs Gnumeric uses, but
it should be taken care of by the toolkit.

Of course, the app will often disagree with gtk's choice of toolkit
widget. If so, the app should set focus explicitly.
