Then, when B is closed, ownership is given back to A. This This is what happens now. There is a field in the window structure for previous active window, which is re-activated once the current window closes. It is like a stack. You can see this if you do a bunch of NEWCLI's then ENDCLI on the last one. They will be active in reverse order. The problem that I don't like, in detail, is when you place a disk in a drive them immediately cd to it. The machine has not had enough time to vadidate and/or determine the directory structure of the disk, so it still thinks there is no disk present and a requestor comes up. Meanwhile, you are typing commands in after the CD, and your keyboard strokes are lost. Some people argue that the requestor has to be activated so you may type the Left-amiga-V or B but this is rediculous. It just isn't worth it.
