When opening a file dialog (CTRL+O), keyboard focus is not moved to the new window. That is non-intuitive and breaks the workflow. Whenever I use the keyboard shortcut to bring up the file dialog, I'm forced to reach for my pointing device in order to set focus on, say, the file filter field so I can input data. Ideally, users should be able to stick to keyboard commands (e.g. CTRL+L, TAB, arrows) to interact with the dialog.
Steps to Reproduce
Press CTRL+O.
Press the down arrow key one or more times.
Actual result:
The keyboard input is handled by the browser window in the background and not the file dialog.
Expected result:
Keyboard focus should be set on the (modal) dialog that has just been opened so that the interaction flow is not disrupted.
Can you reproduce this issue with the current release? YES
Can you reproduce this issue with the beta channel? N/A
Can you reproduce this issue with the nightly channel? N/A
Other Additional Information:
Does the issue resolve itself when disabling Brave Shields? NO
Does the issue resolve itself when disabling Brave Rewards? NO
Is the issue reproducible on the latest version of Chrome? I've just tested it on Chromium Version 113.0.5672.126 (Official Build) for Linux Mint (64-bit) and the behavior also manifests there, which seems to indicate Brave has merely inherited it.
Miscellaneous Information:
As mentioned previously, the current behavior breaks the flow and hurts accessibility (keyboard focus management is crucial for, e.g. users with impaired vision or motor abilities).
