Description

In a multi-window, non modal environment, it would be very useful to have the activated status flag of FocusManager be publicly inspectable. I've had several occasions where I've needed to iterate through the raw children of the stage to figure out what modal is currently active to apply global keyboard event shortcuts to, and have had to monkey patch an isActivated():Boolean method into FocusManager to properly handle it.

In addition it might be helpful to have a call in FocusManager to help resolve the current active focus manager of the application (FocusManager.getActiveFocusManager():IFocusManager).
