from issue #60235: ttran: "I can reliably reproduce this problem on my Powerbook (OSX 10.4, JDK 1.5, NB dev build). Just have two editor tabs. Caret blinking on the first one. Mouse click on the other tab caption. It switched. But no caret blinking. Mouse click inside the second tab to set the focus. Click on the caption of the first tab. No caret. I can't reproduce this problem with JDK 1.4 on the same machine."
