This is already possible in Do.  Just has a different name.

Enable the Window Manager plugin in preferences.  Then you can see new
actions for launchers (that it can match), one of which is 'Focus'.

I don't think it can give higher/lower priorities to Run and Focus
based on if the app is running.  It definitely doesn't do that now,
but I am not sure it even could do that.  At any rate you can type
'firefox' <tab> 'focus' and get it.
