That would result in undesirable behavior if a focus was lost from a pseudo-dialog (commonly a div appended to the end of the document body). Ideally we'd want to go back to the last known sequential navigation point that remains in the DOM.

We could also try to retain a stack of previously visited sequential navigation points. That way when focus is "lost" we pop items off the stack until it returns an insertion point or node that remains in the DOM. In the case of the pseudo dialog, focus might return to the button that triggered the dialog, rather than to the end of the document body where the dialog had been.
