GoldenDict doesn't consistently take focus

[O Gopal]

When I come back to GoldenDict from elsewhere, using "show main window" from the icon in the Unity panel, the "Look up" box doesn't consistently take focus.

To explain:

When I first open GoldenDict, the "look up" box is in focus. To look up a word, all I need to do is start typing.

If I then close (but not quit) GoldenDict and then return to it by clicking "show main window" from the icon in the Unity panel, the look-up box will again be in focus. All I need to do is start typing.

But if I close GoldenDict, do something else (like click on a file in Nautilus), and then return to GoldenDict as before (by clicking "show main window" from the icon in the Unity panel), what then? GoldenDict's main window is shown. Perhaps whatever I last typed into the look-up box may still be there and greyed out, as if it had focus. But GoldenDict itself does *not* have focus. Rather, focus seems to remain with the program used in the interim. So first I have to click somewhere in GoldenDict's main window, and only then can I type the word I'm seeking. This is contrary to my expectations.

What I expect:

I expect that when I activate GoldenDict's main window, GoldenDict's look-up box will have focus, and all I have to do is start typing.

No scenario occurs to me in which this is not what I would expect.

That aside, thank you for this exceedingly useful program.
