Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the only way it's even possible to 
highlight text is to make some makeshift functions that create <tspans> and 
change colors manually. 

The more I look at the spec, it seems like these focus events seem to be 
associated with text even though they are on all primitives. Perhaps they are 
pseudo attributes that will be implemented later? I don't know...
