/*
Preserving input focus has to be more clever than:
    wxWindow* oldFocus = wxWindow::FindFocus();
    ZEN_ON_SCOPE_EXIT(if (oldFocus) oldFocus->SetFocus());

=> wxWindow::SetFocus() internally calls Win32 ::SetFocus, which calls ::SetActiveWindow, which - lord knows why - changes the foreground window to the focus window
    even if the user is currently busy using a different app! More curiosity: this foreground focus stealing happens only during the *first* SetFocus() after app start!
    It also can be avoided by changing focus back and forth with some other app after start => wxWidgets bug or Win32 feature???
