That's unfortunately how focus events work in browsers.

Apart from manually adding focus/blur handlers to the textbox to fire
a focus/blur event on the FocusPanel.
...or simply share the same focus/blur handlers between all three
widgets:
@UiHandler({ "main", "textfield1", "textfield2"})
void on Focus(FocusEvent event) { ... }

Also see:

(which to me suggests focusin/focusout events could be "emulated" in
non-IE browsers by handling focus/blur events in the capture phase)
