It makes sense that when a dialog closes, the same element that was focused should be focused again. I'll look into restoring focus when a cr-dialog closes. This behavior will need to be override-able b/c in some places the dialog is shown from an overflow menu. In that case we want to focus the overflow button and not the menu item that triggered the dialog. For subpages, this is a little bit more gray. A sub page behaves like a dialog to someone someone who's using a screen reader, but it's very different. Does it make sense that we change focus here?
