(Build 200305182350)

The explorer has a nice navigation feature that
works like code completion but it is somewhat broken.

How to reproduce:
Using your cursor up and down keys to navigate an
explorer tree.

Type a letter and the focus is on the first node
whose name begins with that letter. A small
textfield at the top records your typing.

Then press [Esc] so your cursor leaves that text
field and can use your cursor keys to continue
navigating.

Expected behavior:

You should be able to navigate the tree as before
typing letters.

Actual behavior:

The vertical scrollbar moves and you have to
re-focus with either [Shift+Tab] or the mouse to
get back to where you were before.
