Oh, they're different all right. On my system the second form crashes the program.

The way I actually ran into it was by putting up a subwindow and doing a grab() so that the subwindow could be dismissed by clicking outside it. I noticed that there was no keyboard navigation inside the subwindow. I'm trying to determine if that's expected or if I'm mishandling things.
