Description

With the current master version I can spawn the achievement editor from the menu, but not from the achievement list, using RAppleWin. It also does not switch focus to it as expected when selecting an entry, even when the window is spawned.

Research direction

Reproduce the problem in RAppleWin by launching the achievement editor from the menu and then selecting an entry in the achievement list. Compare the two launch paths and verify that selecting an entry both spawns the editor and gives it focus; the issue is done when both behaviors work consistently.
