In the focusOut handler I call another handler (CheckFocusedObject)  
using send in time. CheckFocusedObject then determines if focus is  
still within a particular group. If focus is still in the group then a  
UI toolbar remains visible. If focus has left the group then the UI  
toolbar is hidden.

The UI is basically responding to changes in the focusedObject. I feel  
that having the code that turns the UI toolbar on/off within the group  
is much cleaner than trying to watch for focus within the group at the  
card or frontscript level. I am just hoping to remove any need for  
send in time, wait with messages, etc.
