I have a test case that demonstrates what I am talking about.

I have created a simple as possible RCP application.  There is no menu, coolbar,
status line, or anything.  I create a simple as possible perspective and give it
a default view (SampleView).  SampleView's createPartControl creates a new
Composite that has the SWT.EMBEDDED flag set.  I then pass this new Composite
into SWT_AWT.new_Frame() and get back a Frame.  As per the javadoc I add a heavy
weight Panel to the Frame and then subsequently add a light weight panel (for
looks) and then two JTextFields.

I also override setFocus() to default the focus to the first JTextField.

When I run the app, the focus starts on the CTab from the view.  If I hit tab
then the focus correctly goes to the first JTextField.  If I hit tab again, the
focus incorrectly goes back up to the CTab on the view.  The expected behavior
would be that hitting tab when the first JTextField has focus would result in
the second JTextField receiving focus.

The attached plugin defines an application named SWT_AWT_Focus_Bug.application
which is what should be run to see the demo in action.  I built the plugin off
of Eclipse 3.1M4 and I do not guarantee backwards compatibility with previous
versions of Eclipse.
