You can read the WindowFocus.html document (back/Documentation/Back) 
about why I allow the main menu to become key. This may not be 
appropriate for all window managers (e.g. Windows), so perhaps your 
change is not so bad. I don't know for sure because I haven't tried to 
run GNUstep on Windows yet. If there is a window that is always on 
screen that can receive key events, then we should make sure that gets 
to be key and not the main menu.
