Move focus to editor on left-clicking a tab #8446

@Yaron10

Description

@Yaron10

STR:
Give keyboard focus to a "not-editor" element (e.g. the Incremental Search Bar).
Left-click the current document's tab.

Result:
The editor does not get the focus.

Expected Result:
The expected behavior is that the editor should get the focus.
Also, practically it can be useful in many cases (e.g. if you want to move focus to the editor without changing the caret position or if you want to keep a selection).
