            A potential workaround for this is to use the new icecore:focusManager component on the page, and have the application programmatically set the focus to the desired field inside the ace:dialog when it is shown via "visible=true", by specifying the id of the component to receive focus in the focusManager's "for" attribute.

            Description

            It would be a nice feature if the ace:dialog supported a new "setFocus" attribute that could be set to define the id of a component contained within the ace:dialog that should receive focus whenever the dialog is made visible, either via the the visible attribute or JavaScript API.

            This would provide an easy mechanism for applications to have focus be moved to a component inside the dialog when it is presented. Currently, focus is generally persisted on the component that triggers the dialog being made visible, which is usually not the desired outcome.
