Problem is solved! The culprit was in very old parts of the code, where my predecessor- programmers explicitly thwarted Windows laf default behaviour, by defining all (except the chosen one) as non-defaultCapable. They were the same who explicitly selected windows laf, but really only wanted the look, not the feel - well, not all of it, at least. The reason, I fooled myself into thinking my SSCCE would be relevant is, that Java here isn't locally configured for windows l&f, so my SSCCE picked some other laf, and that other laf just didn't have the "default follows focused buttons"-behaviour in the first place.
