The Item focus and activeFocus properties sometime change multiple times when changing focus on an item.

QDeclarativeItem emits activeFocusChanged and in some instances focusChanged in response to FocusIn and FocusOut sent to the item itself or an item within its focus scope. When the focusItem is changed from an item to a parent scope, or from a scope to a child item an item can receive both a focus in and focus out event for no net change resulting in spurious property changes.
