[Seaside] Making a defined text input have the default focus

[Boris Popov]

If you look at the implementation you'll notice it basically adds a small javascript snippet at the bottom of the page so that when your page finishes loading the focus is set to the field you specify. I imagine you can just try,

html script: 'setFocus(' , brush id printString , ')'

instead when you're creating content for updater. If that works, extract into something that's nicer and more reusable ;)
