"The basic idea is that focus can only be in one place at one time. Thus, the currently focused element is only stored in one place, as opposed to the multiple places that the old code did.

The old way involved a variety of undocumented functions which appeared to adjust the focus or some aspect of it, but it was never clear which of these functions was the right one to call in which situation. Now, all actual focus changes all eventually go through a single function, either directly or via a number of existing APIs (such as by calling an element’s focus method). "
