Yes, that's right.

In my example I set grab() to the subwindow.
Quoting the prophet:
Fl_Window* grab();
void grab(Fl_Window&w) {grab(&w);}
This is used when pop-up menu systems are active.
Send all events to the passed window no matter where the
pointer or focus is (including in other programs). (etc)
Doesn't that mean it's supposed to get events external to the window?
