 I've created this patch based on fixes 18207 that adds support for sending
 keyboard commands to a focused X window. I've been writing a MythRemote
 for my n800 internet tablet and I'm using the Mythfrontend telnet control
 for sending commands to my frontend. I noticed that when mplayer was
 focused commands were still sent to the frontend. I created this patch to
 provide a means to send x commands to the focused window. It adds the xkey
 command (behaves just like key). I also added a sub command "focused" to
 retrieve the name of the x window that currently has the focus. Its pretty
 rough, but I thought I'd send it out to get some discussion started.
