Using Apple's Popover example with a date picker added to its popover view, I made MyWindowController the delegate of the popover view and implemented the -windowDidBecomeKey: delegate method. In it, I test whether the window that is becoming key is the detached popover window, and if it is I call sleep(1). Then, when I run the application and detach the popover to its own window, the first date picker element is properly highlighted for one second. Then the highlighting disappears and at the same moment the original parent window loses its key window appearance.

So, it's something about the window connection that's causing the misbehavior, but I can't seem to put my finger on it conceptually.
