Anatoly Kupriyanov commented on WICKET-1404:
--------------------------------------------

It's bad idea to set focus from the onload event. This event could occur after a control is visible and a user starts edit the control - focus suddenly jumps to another one.
I hate this - I open page, it still loading but login/password form already rendered and while I'm typing a password, page finishes loading and focus suddenly jumps to the login box, it could reveal my password.
Usually it's better to put getElementById('" + component.getMarkupId() + "').focus() right after form component.
