Comment(by mpt):

 QuLogic, in 2.4.3, focus is not on the Protocol menu, it is on the "Basic"
 tab. (Has this changed in 2.5?) Focusing the Protocol menu by default
 would make ''more'' sense, but I predict that most people who change the
 protocol at all do so with the mouse, not the keyboard. For those people,
 focusing the Screen Name field would be quicker when setting up an AIM
 account, and make zero difference for any other protocol.

 deryni, I'm not sure how that suggestion would work in this case, because
 there is more than one text field in this window. I was suggesting merely
 focusing the first text field by default.
