True, but if focus is already set at some other node then I think it would be better to ignore the 'autofocus', that is what Opera or Firefox does if you run the attached test case (focus is on "Click me" button and not on the newly created input element).

What I observed in Opera and firefox is when I click on button, autofocus is not honored, also better test I tried :  

function onLoad()
{
  setTimeout(addInputElement, 2000);
}
and I start typing something in existing input element, the focus does not move to newly created element where as in webkit it moves to new element.
