[CommonNavigator] Selection changes without focus [message #463792]

I open an editor by double-clicking on a CommonNavigator node. The
editor is opened and gets the focus. When I click on CommonNavigator
tree nodes and change the tree selection, the editor keeps the focus!
This is strange. Could this be a bug? How can I circumvent this problem?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Sounds like a bug. Could it be that the editor responds to selection
changes by activating itself, or setting the focus to some control in the
editor's content area?

Sequence:

- double-click on a CommonNavigator node
- Action opens editor (page.openEditor()): editor has Focus and is active
- double-click on another CommonNavigator node: tree has Focus and editor is active

In the meantime I have found a workaround: the editor open action is a
SelectionChangedListener listening to the CommonViewer. The selectionChanged
method of the action sets the CommonNavigator active (page.activate())
if necessary.
