I have a controller that loads a window from a nib. It initializes
the window and controls in its -awakeFromNib, then calls [NSApp
runModalForWindow:_window] to run the window modally. When the OK
button is hit, it calls [NSApp abortModal] to terminate the modal
session. The modal window goes away, but the previously (and now
current) frontmost window is inactive. Is that window supposed to
become active automagically, or did I miss something in the setup/
tear down?

Please no comments about using a sheet window; the window behind mine
doesn't belong to me.

What do you mean here--that it doesn't belong to your application? Or are
you creating a plugin for some other app? We need to know the context.

Yes, I am creating an application plug-in. When the user clicks on a button in the application UI, my plug-in is called to display its configuration window. I was previously using a Carbon window loaded from a nib, calling RunAppModalLoopForWindow to initiate the modal window session and then QuitAppModalLoopForWindow when it was done. In the Carbon case, it just worked; with my Cocoa implementation everything is working except for the last bit about the app window becoming active again.
