Is there a JavaScript code that gets the current text field that is being focused? I reckon I can use events but I'm not sure how to "listen" to these events.

No, there are no such global event listeners in Acrobat. The only way to do that is to add a script to each field's On Focus event (and probably On Blur, too), to keep track of the currently active field, via a doc-level variable.
