           Summary: not sure what's mean by "User agents must
                    _synchronously_ run the focusing steps". Does this
                    mean that the event handlers involved in steps 1 and
                    and 3 must return before further steps in the
                    procedure can be taken? A reasonable alternative
                    interpretation

Comment:
not sure what's mean by "User agents must _synchronously_ run the focusing
steps". Does this mean that the event handlers involved in steps 1 and and 3
must return before further steps in the procedure can be taken? A reasonable
alternative interpretation would be that events get "fired", but the event
handlers don't get invoked until later. This makes sense if firing an event
consists of inserting an event into a queue until the system decides to
dispatch the event, which would happen at some later point.
