    Description

      A child window with the Qt.WindowDoesNotAcceptFocus flag set still steals focus from its parent window when it becomes visible.

      Code sample:

      import QtQuick

Window {
    width: 640
    height: 480
    visible: true
    title: 'Main window'

    Window {
        id: childWindow
        width: 200
        height: 200
        title: 'Child window'

        //transientParent: null // it doesn't matter if it's set
        flags: Qt.WindowDoesNotAcceptFocus
    }

    TextInput {
        anchors.fill: parent
        onTextEdited: childWindow.visible = true
    }
}

      Steps to reproduce:
      1. Click inside the main window to make TextInput active
      2. Press any key
      3. A child window will be shown

      Actual results: The text input loses focus
      Expected results: The text input doesn't lose the focus
