Bug#528455: zenity window no longer gets input focus

Package: zenity
Version: 2.24.1-1
Severity: normal

I use a zenity command from a launcher on my Gnome panel.  It used to
pop up the zenity window with the input focus ready for text entry.
But now the focus stays on the panel icon, and I have to mouse over
and click on the zenity window, making it much less useful for my
application.

The same thing happens if I launch it from the command line, and I'm
pretty sure (but not 100%) that it used to get the input focus even in
this case.
