Unfortunately some doors are terribly slow when that node is not the active
window (as in Win9x there can be only one active window). Ofcourse this is due
to the fact that this door releases timeslices when another node is selected,
and there is no option

So the simplest method AFAIK is, selecting this window, so this door(s) run
faster. This will only need a few lines of code.. New approach :)
