after some investigation, turns out this actually works, but after startup, the Stage doesn't have proper focus. Not sure yet where it ended up, will try to add some code that forces focus on the stage when the stage goes to spread. (as this could in theory also happen if you intentionally put focus on the launcher, the panel menu or something and then go to spread)
