Hrmmm, I revisited this, because what you describe does make sense. But I just tested it and the change you suggested seems to already work like that.
1. I turn on "Activate table when action required" as well as "Highlight active window".
2. I put 2 tables in the stack.
3. The first table moves to the grid and gets highlighted to show that it is activated and has focus. I do not act on the buttons.
4. When the second table requires action, it moves to the next grid slot, but the first table stays focused and active as shown by the highlighter.
Does this test do something different for you?
