There was a problem hiding this comment.
I wonder if the fix should be with the appender focus on close behavior you found. Rather than always focusing the appender when the quick inserter gets closed, we only want to focus the appender when escape is pressed. I wonder if the fix in the social icon PR was too heavy handed and needs to be revisited.

I opened #67851 to see if removing the part you found would fix it as well. It does seem to be working cleanly and handles the focus and closing. |

If it makes the main inserter behavior more consistent between all editors, then I think it's a good idea. |

What?
Fixes #67809
In the widget editor, if you click "Browse all" after clicking the button inserter, the main inserter doesn't open. To solve this issue, we will not close the main inserter even if the focus is outside of it.
Note
This problem has been fixed by #68060. As a result, this PR only fixes the second problem described below.
Why?
I identified this issue as being caused by #64877. The most likely cause is as follows, but note that there are two issues intertwined:
useDialoghook. Since the button inserter is focused again, it is determined that "the outside is focused" and the main inserter that is about to be opened is immediately closed. This behavior is inconsistent with other editors, which is the second problem.How?
This PR removes the
useDialoghook to only solve the second issue, meaning that the main inserter will not be closed when focus is gained outside of it, which makes it consistent with the behavior of other editors.Related PR: #61004
