When I edit tags a suggestion drop down will often appear. When the suggestion drop down opens it steals focus from the entry field I was typing in, meaning I can't type anything further until I put focus back on the entry. Then the suggestion drop down will pop up and I have to repeat. If I accidentally hit backspace when the suggestion drop down opens it will take me back to home. Any workaround for this?

This is 23.0.54 on an Ubuntu based distro w/KDE.

Can you check for UI tweaks in your KDE and/or window manager settings?
Some distros have tweaks for focus stealing...

I was able to duplicate this on ubuntu 16.04.
It is fixed for me now in 23.0.95
