This might need to be moved to some Gnome or gnome-shell tracker instead. Let me know, and I'll copy it there.

(Say, by Ctrl+O in Firefox on Ubuntu 20.04. Click the "search" icon (a magnifying glass at top right), or just start typing. Begin to type a search in the search box that appears. Reproducible in: "Files" 3.36.3-stable on Ubuntu 20.04 Current behavior There's a race condition, where, if you're faster than the search, you can type something including a space. However, if you type slowly, as soon as you hit space, the first result will be opened. (Note, this incremental search was buggy in a different way back in v3.26.4 on Ubuntu 18.04, when I reported this upstream, was told to take it downstream, and then had to go back to doing real work. See https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/issues/936#note_454231 ) Expected behavior The incremental search will continue as we type in the search box, without any focus-stealing.
