 When writing a new page, it is almost certain that you'll want to type the
 title first, hence WordPress focusing the title field. However, when
 editing a page it is almost certain that you'll want to edit the content
 first, which means that focusing the title field in this case is annoying
 and unnecessary.

 Combined with the fact that the preview pane tends to take a second or two
 to load, this can often result in one starting to type in the content area
 and then focus being stolen by the title field - particularly annoying if
 one hits enter just as the focus is stolen, which ends up submitting the
 form.

 This patch makes it so that the title field is only focused when writing a
 new page.
