I wouldn't be against it.. sounds reasonable.

Seems like:
Fl::add_focus_callback(cb, data);
Fl::remove_focus_callback(cb,data);
..would make sense.

I'd prefer the user's callback code do the Fl::focus() call
(if it needs it) rather than a third arg so as to be consistent
with Fl_Callback and it's always easier to remember shorter arg lists.
Plus whatever few cycles are saved by preventing the user from calling
Fl::focus() are probably undone by the stack manipulations of handling
a third arg in the callback..
