    [muan] @marcysutton :wave: I have been looking into using what-input to change the button focus situation in Chrome, but wanted to do more research regarding https://marcysutton.com/button-focus-hell/, do you happen to know if the chrome behavior has ever been filed as a bug (I couldn’t find one) or has Chrome people said it is not a bug?

  3. [muan] I see. Thanks!
