guest machines in seamless mode should be aware of the host's focus -> won't fix for now

Description (last modified by )
Guest machines in seamless mode are not aware of the host machine's focus. This creates some odd behaviors.
Example one:
- Create a virtual machine in seamless mode.
- Switch to a window in the virtual machine.
- Switch to a window in the host machine.
- The virtual machine's window still has its titlebar highlighted, as if it has focus.
Example two:
- Create a virtual machine in seamless mode.
- Open a menu in the virtual machine.
- Switch to a window in the host machine.
- The virtual machine's menu is still open, even though activating another window would normally close it.
This could probably be solved by creating a hidden "focus is outside the machine" window in the guest and focusing it when the seamless window loses focus in the host.
