Description

A nice new feature would be to have declarative focus management off the body tag with a new attribute 'focus' to could use valueBindings and locate focusable components from either their component id or client id.

Adding this feature would address two current deficiencies with ICEfaces focus mgmt.:

1. It's not currently possible to setFocus on a component without resorting to component binding.
2. Even with component binding, setting the initial focus (when the page is first loaded) is not dependable.

Changes made so the component would not find a component, if the "clientId" was specified. So now the component would find the component only if "id" was specified.

Updated description:
-------------------------

There is a new attribute "focus" added to the ice:outputBody component, which allows to focus to a component by just setting the "id" or the "clientId" of the component. It also avoids the need of component binding. The value of the focus attribute can be bind to the bean using the value binding. So application can dynamically change the focus.

Note:

To focus the elements inside the UIData type of components, the element can not be focused using the "id", the clientId has to be used instead.
The focus would only be requested when there is a value change on the focus attribute.
If you setting the initial focus, the focused component must be rendered on first render call, if not then set the focus attribute only when component gets renders.
