usability fix: release URL address bar focus

[samwhitlock]

what happens now

1. enter a search via cc in the URL bar
2. hit enter
3. URL bar does not release the focus. It requires a mouse click to navigate away from it.

what I would expect

in step 3, after hitting enter, the URL bar would release focus like doing any other search / url entry with it.
This is especially useful for folks who use heavily keyboard-centric navigation in browsers (e.g. the Vimium extension).

my system

• Firefox on OpenSUSE tumbleweed (but it happens on every platform I've tried)

Hi @samwhitlock. Thanks for reporting. You are not the only one who complains about this. See rust-search-extension#102.

+1 it would be a great usability improvement. The relevant browser bugs seem to be https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1324762 and https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1374656, not sure if it makes any difference but I starred the issue.
